2020 observation

At a time where many countries are focused on their own domestic situations, Australians are calling for more global cooperation in response to international crises. More than half (53%) say ‘we need more global cooperation, rather than every country putting their own interests first.’ Only a third (31%) say ‘the balance between global cooperation and the interests of individual countries is about right.’ And even fewer (16%) say ‘we need less global cooperation. Every country should put their own interests first.’
