Arab Barometer Wave I, 2006-2009
No full textIn its first phase, the Arab Barometer (AB) carried out nationally representative Democracy Barometer surveys in Morocco, Algeria, Kuwait, Palestine (West Bank and Gaza), Jordan, Lebanon and Yemen during 2006, 2007 and 2008. The Arab Reform Initiative (ARI) also conducted its own first wave of national surveys in four countries, Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon, and Morocco, in 2006-2008. These surveys, conducted through face-to-face interviews, included questions on a wide range of topics pertaining to governance, political life and political, social and cultural values. A total of some 10,000 respondents were interviewed. Following the public release of the AB survey data in 2009, the Arab Barometer was designated as the best new data in comparative politics by the American Political Science Association. Professor Mark Tessler of the University of Michigan and Professor Amaney Jamal of Princeton University accepted this prestigious award on behalf of the Arab Barometer Steering Committee

No full textZorgvastgoed neemt in de Barometer Maatschappelijk Vastgoed een steeds prominentere plaats in. Waar de eerste Barometers nog volledig gefocust waren op gemeentelijk vastgoed, wordt vanaf 2013 een groeiend deel aan zorgvastgoed gewijd, met als kernboodschap: meer marktwerking, extramuralisering en scheiden van wonen en zorg vragen om nieuwe combinaties van wonen, zorg en welzijn, nieuwe financieringsvormen, en nieuwe vormen van samenwerking tussen zorginstellingen, marktpartijen en de overheid. Deze bijdrage schets een beeld van de thema’s en trends die in eerdere Barometers beschreven zijn. Het artikel eindigt met enkele suggesties voor de Barometer 11.0.Real Estate Managemen
GO Barometer: meer wantrouwen en onvoldoende capaciteit binnen het vakgebied
No full textDe tweede editie van de GO Barometer is uit! De Stichting Kennis Gebiedsontwikkeling (SKG) brengt ook dit jaar de stand van zaken binnen het vakgebied van gebiedsontwikkeling in kaart. Gebiedsontwikkeling is een zaak van lange adem, dus er zijn veel overeenkomsten met 2022 – maar toch ook enkele opvallende verschillen. Vooral het stijgende onderlinge wantrouwen tussen partijen is opvallend.
