Understanding FATA Volume IV: Public Opinion Poll
After receiving a tremendously encouraging response from local and international quarters, the Understanding FATA Volume IV project will include an opinion poll of 4,000 residents of FATA, and a series of focused group discussions and consultations with FATA stakeholders. With support from the British High Commission, the Project started on 1 February 2010.
CAMP has been conducting opinion polls with the residents of FATA since 2007. This series of polls has been possible due to CAMP’s acceptability in the FATA region, and the trust it has gained among the local communities. The polls have brought forward views on wide-ranging issues including governance, religion and society, human rights and the international community – opinions that the outside world knows little about. While several surveys have been conducted in FATA, this was the first time that opinion of a cross-section of society was taken on such a wide range of issues. The size of the sample population itself, as well as the subject matter makes ‘Understanding FATA’ an innovative project that allows the people of FATA speaks for themselves.
The Understanding FATA Volume IV report will be published in English, Urdu, Pushtu and Dari and will be disseminated through a public launch in Islamabad in October 2010. The research project will contain two sections: one of quantitative data and one of qualitative narrative analysis of the information gathered in the research process. Documenting the change of opinions since the last survey and taking stock of the last three polls, the final product will be similar to what was produced in the first round of polling in 2007.
Understanding FATA Volume IV, like the first three volumes will be a sincere attempt to provide a better understanding of what the people of FATA want, and what they think of issues that concern them. The thoughts and feelings expressed through the opinion poll in which 4,000 men and women across seven tribal agencies and six frontier regions are taking part, will influence policy decisions within Pakistan and abroad.
