IDI launches ‘tag yourself’ initiative

- • Jerusalem Post Staff

For those who wonder where they fall along Israel’s political spectrum, the Israel Democracy Institute has launched an innovative program that reveals exactly that.

With IDI’s “tag yourself” online survey, individual­s can now determine how they fare in comparison to their fellow citizens.

How proud are you to be an Israeli? Will the corruption investigat­ions impact your vote in the next election? How hard are members of Knesset working to affect change? These are just some of the 11 burning questions respondent­s are invited to answer while visiting the think tank’s website.

In addition to receiving a personal email revealing one’s individual results, the survey’s complete findings will be presented at a festive ceremony at the President’s Residence in Jerusalem on Monday.

IDI’s annual Israeli Democracy Index, which is now in its 16th year, is a flagship project for the institute that offers a comprehens­ive overview of the current state of Israel’s democracy.

Conducted by their Guttman Center for Public Opinion and Policy Research and led by Prof. Tamar Hermann, the index “examines how citizens perceive the functionin­g of government institutio­ns, the level of solidarity in Israeli society and compares the health of its democracy in comparison to other countries in world,” the organizati­on said in a statement. As such, the survey aims to pinpoint the strengths and weaknesses of Israeli democracy in order to improve the country as a whole.
