This project aims to understand what affects government popularity and how this shapes the health of democracy. What citizens are concerned about and how their concerns are satisfactorily addressed is central to an effective democracy and to responsible government. The project expects to generate new knowledge about the operation of democracy by identifying the factors that shape government popularity and how and in what ways governments respond to them. Expected outcomes include a comprehensive understanding of how democracy in Australia functions, which should provide the benefit of insight into how Australian democracy might be reformed to better meet the expectations of the public at a time of declining public trust in politics.

该项目旨在了解是什么影响政府的受欢迎程度，以及这如何塑造民主的健康。公民关心的问题以及如何令人满意地解决他们的问题是有效民主和负责任政府的核心。该项目预计将通过确定影响政府受欢迎程度的因素以及政府如何以及以何种方式对这些因素作出反应，产生有关民主运作的新知识。预期成果包括全面了解澳大利亚民主的运作方式，这将有助于深入了解澳大利亚民主如何改革，以便在公众对政治的信任度下降的情况下更好地满足公众的期望。
