ANU TESTS AUSTRALIAN OPINION AHEAD OF 2020 SUMMIT

15 April 2008

A new survey of public opinion to be launched tomorrow by The Australian National University will make it easier for academics, decision-makers, journalists and poll-watchers to understand Australian political opinion against international attitudes.

The ANU Poll differs from other opinion polls by placing public opinion in a broad policy context, and by benchmarking Australia against international opinion. It also can also reveal trends in opinions over many decades, drawing on the wide range of academic public opinion polls conducted at ANU since the 1960s.

The results of the first ANU Poll will be released tomorrow at the launch and identify what issues and challenges Australians think are important in the lead up to the Australia 2020 Summit.

WHAT: Launch of the ANU Poll
WHEN: 12.30 pm, Wednesday 16 April
WHERE: Committee Room 2S3, Parliament House Canberra
