2024 Mapping Social Cohesion Report, 2024

As every year, the Mapping Social Cohesion study measures and tracks Australia’s social cohesion. This measurement and tracking is multidimensional and multifaceted, combining survey and interview data from across the last 17 years and resulting in this annual report. The Scanlon Index of Social Cohesion is one important component, combining people’s responses to multiple survey questions into single measures of social cohesion and each of its five domains, allowing us to monitor social cohesion over time at a high level.
