Bilal Ijaz Gilani, Executive Director of Gallup Pakistan and Board Member of Gallup International Association, attended the 77th Annual Conference of Gallup International Association in Varna, Bulgaria.
This unique gathering of pollsters from across the globe discussed new techniques in survey research as well as new ideas reshaping the world.
In his presentation, Bilal Gilani showcased insights from Gallup International’s End of Year surveys, conducted annually since 1977, which chart a changing world over nearly five decades. He highlighted four key global trends emerging from the data:
Backsliding of democracies and weakening of faith in democratic institutions
Decline of religion and the rise of post-religious societies
Belief in technology and dataism, with people placing increasing faith in science, algorithms, and innovation
Rising global economic anxiety, with concerns about jobs, inflation, and inequality shaping outlooks everywhere
Another major theme of his talk was the rise of a multipolar world, and how public opinion worldwide views the U.S.–China rivalry with caution, recognizing both risks and uncertainties for global stability.
Gallup International, since 1947, has remained committed to “Measuring the Pulse of Public Opinion” — providing an evidence-based lens on how societies are evolving.
