Impact

Each Mapping Social Cohesion national survey builds on the previous year and informs the Scanlon-Monash Index (SMI) of Social Cohesion. The surveys have been undertaken since 2007 where the original survey provided the benchmark against which the SMI is then measured.

Aims + Outcomes

A prime objective of the surveys is to further understanding of the social impact of Australia’s increasingly diverse immigration program.

Methods
