Demographic and life course drivers of social cohesion

该项目旨在了解澳大利亚个人和社区层面的社会凝聚力驱动因素和压力。通过结合来自多个现有数据来源的信息，预计将产生关于个人如何以及为什么随着时间的推移更多或更少地参与其社区和社会的新知识。该项目的预期成果包括创建衡量社会凝聚力动态的分析工具，帮助弥合当前理论和数据之间的差距。这将在识别威胁和机会、告知社区和政府倡议、加强和维持社会凝聚力以及社区和澳大利亚的集体福祉方面提供重大好处。

The project aims to understand the individual and community-level drivers and pressures on social cohesion in Australia. It is expected to generate new knowledge on how and why individuals become more or less engaged in their communities and society over time by combining information from multiple existing data sources. Expected outcomes of the project include the creation of analytical tools for measuring the dynamics of social cohesion, helping to bridge the gap between current theories and data. This should provide significant benefits in identifying threats and opportunities, and informing community and government initiatives, to strengthen and maintain social cohesion and the collective well-being of communities and Australia.
