I’m excited to welcome @burkeo to the @pewresearch board of directors. To meet our mission, the Center must engage our audiences with relevant analysis presented in accessible formats while adapting to fast-changing research and communications landscapes. linkedin.com/in/burke-olsen/
Burke’s experience as publisher of @Deseret and his extensive background in communications and marketing (including 3 years, early in his career, with the Center’s own @pewreligion team!) adds invaluable expertise and new perspectives.
.@pewresearch has documented a period of tremendous technological and societal change over the past 20 years. The moment merits a shout out to our primary funder @pewtrusts for their deep commitment to investing in information that is vital to a democratic society.
Here’s a look back at how public opinion has changed on many topics since 2004, the year The Pew Charitable Trusts created Pew Research Center. pewrsr.ch/4dhjFE5
I’m thrilled to welcome Rebecca Weiss to the @pewresearch board of directors. Rebecca’s academic and professional background in political communication and data science brings critical expertise and a forward-looking perspective as we chart our course. pewresearch.org/about/our-go…

It was a pleasure to host @LibnOfCongress, @KenBurns, @MichaelDimock and @BeverlyKirk at @Pewtrusts in celebration of Pew’s 75th anniversary. Thank you for sharing your insights on strengthening our democracy. #Pew75
Excellent conversation today with @BeverlyKirk of @NewhouseSU and documentary filmmaker @KenBurns for the @pewtrusts 75th anniversary event. We talked about Americans’ gloomy outlook on the future, but reasons for optimism too. pewtrusts.org/en/about/event… #Pew75

My deep thanks to @LatinoDirectors @ozziemeza1 @EstherLCDA for connecting me with @mwadsworth in our recent board search. You are the best!
Thrilled for @pewresearch board member Claudine Gay on her elevation to president of @Harvard. Dr. Gay's perspective and expertise has been invaluable as we chart our strategic path forward.
Congratulations to @pewresearch board member Claudine Gay on being named the 30th president of @Harvard.
How the world views China: A great essay drawn from over 20 years of @pewresearch surveys in more than 60 countries. Big picture: not "more of the same."

I'm excited to welcome Mike Roggero, CEO of Fuse Media, to Pew Research Center's board of directors. We are so excited to have Mike's expertise, experience, perspective and commitment to empowering multicultural voices added to our board. fusepress.tv/executive/mike-…
Also, my deepest thanks to the good folks at @LatinoDirectors for helping @pewresearch with our board recruitment, and for connecting me with @RoggeroM!
This newly published project from @pewidentity showcases the power of qualitative research. The team conducted 66 focus groups with 264 Asian Americans in order to better understand their lived experiences in America. This excellent essay and video documentary is the result:
What’s it like #BeingAsianInAmerica? Asian American participants in dozens of focus groups described navigating their identity in a nation where the label “Asian” brings expectations about their origins, behavior, and physical self. 1/ pewresearch.org/race-ethnici…
This isn’t the only @pewresearch project that has leveraged qualitative research. My latest quarterly newsletter discusses how and why we use qualitative research in our work. Read it here: mailchi.mp/pewresearch.org/h… and subscribe here: mailchi.mp/pewresearch/quart…
Wait what! Is that a partisan gap getting (slightly) smaller over time? New @pewresearch data on #UkraineWar.

Really enjoyed reading @shershovitz essay today. @pewresearch asked a cross section of Americans about the problem of evil and what it says about faith, and got thoughtful answers! pewresearch.org/religion/202…
Some of the richest conversations I've had with my kids have been about God. Today, @nytopinion let me share some thoughts about the problem of evil and the value of religious rituals for those who don't believe.

One of the most exciting - and difficult! - parts of working at a research organization is deciding what to study. There are so many topics to explore and so many urgent questions to answer. How do we choose? Here's how @pewresearch manages this process. mailchi.mp/pewresearch/how-w…
