The Scanlon Foundation Research Institute’s 2025 Mapping Social Cohesion Report reveals that 83 per cent of Australians view multiculturalism positively. Even among those who believe migration levels are too high, most still acknowledge its benefits, seeing migrants as good citizens (85 per cent) and contributors to the economy (66 per cent). However, it also notes negativity towards Muslim, Hindu, Jewish, and Sikh communities. Lead author James O’Donnell notes that economic disadvantage remains the strongest driver of low social cohesion, as financial hardship is linked to reduced trust, well-being, and community connection.

He also weighs in on the national debate around migration, with insight grounded in lived experience.
