The social research we conduct at Istanbul Economy Research focuses on exploring the multi-layered structure of society, cultural interactions and changing dynamics. Beyond determining the prevalence of people’s thoughts, beliefs, expectations and behaviors in society, we aim to understand the reasons behind them and how they are shaped by their living conditions. Through in-depth analyses and comprehensive reports, we take an approach that will reveal the diversity within society by addressing not only the generalizable inferences that appear on the surface, but also the deeper emotional context.
Our social research services are designed to understand these complex and changing phenomena and provide our clients with valuable insights. Through our research outputs, our clients align their projects with the real needs of society and increase their potential to create sustainable social impact. Up until today, we have made valuable contributions to the data-driven decision-making and policy development processes of organizations with our research on gender, human rights, polarization and conflict, poverty, migration, climate crisis and sustainability.
