Insights For Research Polling and Training

Insights for Research, Polling and Training is a leading Palestine-based research, monitoring and evaluation, and AI-enabled advisory firm delivering high-quality market research, public opinion polling, third-party monitoring (TPM), data analytics, and strategic consulting across Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, and the broader MENA region.

With more than 400 projects delivered for governments, international organizations, NGOs, and private sector clients, Insights has established itself as one of the region’s most trusted providers of evidence-based research and field data collection services in complex and fragile environments.

Our core competitive advantage lies in our advanced field research and monitoring infrastructure. Insights deploys a network of 100+ highly trained field researchers and enumerators across the West Bank and Gaza, with operational partnerships and field capabilities extending into Jordan and Lebanon. Our field teams utilize GPS-enabled tablet-based data collection systems through Kobo Toolbox and other digital platforms, allowing real-time tracking, location verification, automated skip logic, and instant synchronization of field data. This ensures superior transparency, geographic validation, and data integrity—critical for donor-funded assessments, humanitarian monitoring, baseline/endline studies, and nationwide surveys.

To further enhance quality assurance, Insights integrates artificial intelligence into its data collection and validation workflows. Our AI-assisted quality control systems support automated anomaly detection, error flagging, consistency checks, interviewer performance monitoring, and predictive risk identification, creating one of the most technologically advanced research operations in the region.

Insights is led by a multidisciplinary team of internationally trained experts with elite academic and professional credentials. The firm is founded by Dr. Faisal Awartani, a Ph.D. statistician and data scientist with graduate degrees in Statistics and Computer Science from American University in Washington, D.C., and over 30 years of experience in advanced analytics, survey methodology, and policy research. He is supported by Bryanna Millis, Director of Programs based in Washington, D.C., with advanced training from Penn State University and extensive expertise in international development and program management; Elizabeth Price, a Harvard University graduate specializing in research design, evaluation, and strategic analytics; and Hamza Karajeh, General Manager and graduate of The Ohio State University, who oversees operations and institutional growth.

Our monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) and third-party monitoring (TPM) capabilities are among the strongest in the region. We support donors and implementers with independent verification of program implementation, beneficiary validation, field audits, indicator framework development, theory of change design, baseline/endline evaluations, and real-time performance monitoring dashboards. Our integrated data systems enable clients to track implementation progress, measure impact, and make evidence-based programmatic decisions.

In addition to research and M&E, Insights is at the forefront of AI adoption and digital transformation advisory. Through our partnership with Palestine Techno Park and the launch of the AI and Data Lab, we help organizations assess AI readiness, build data strategies, optimize workflows through agentic AI, and deploy practical AI-enabled solutions to improve productivity and competitiveness.

By combining scientific rigor, elite technical expertise, advanced field infrastructure, and AI-powered innovation, Insights offers clients a unique blend of research excellence, implementation capacity, and strategic advisory services unmatched in Palestine and the surrounding region.
