Pears Foundation

We are delighted to welcome our friends at More in Common back for another online Lunch and Learn.

Over the last few years, More in Common has been monitoring UK public attitudes to the war in Gaza, and exploring how the conflict is influencing division and polarisation in Britain. In this briefing, More in Common’s researchers will present the findings from their upcoming 2025 deep-dive into attitudes on the war, how these attitudes have changed over time, and how leaders and community groups in Britain can respond. Drawing on focus groups and polling across the British public, the report will explore not just what people think about the conflict, but what is driving these attitudes, and how the conflict is changing how Britons think about each other.

Presenter biography:

As UK Director of More in Common, Luke Tryl leads the organisation’s ground-breaking UK public opinion and thought leadership work, shining a light on what the public thinks about topics as diverse as immigration, climate change, gender identity and mental health. With a focus on the nuances and complexity of public opinion, he helps policymakers, business and civil society navigate issues often regarded as tricky and divisive.

This is an event for Pears Foundation grantee organisations only. The briefing will be followed by a Q and A, we ask that questions submitted are relevant to the group as a whole rather than specific to your organisation.
