About 40 per cent of the Australian public consider migration too high


A major survey of Australian-born and immigrant Australians finds, despite widely shared values, many people struggle to feel accepted within mainstream society.

The survey, called Australia at 2015, is the largest parallel survey ever undertaken of those born in Australia and immigrants.

It is collaboration between the Scanlon Foundation -- which aims to foster social cohesion within Australia -- the Australian Multicultural Foundation and Melbourne's Monash University.

The goal of the Scanlon Foundation report overall is to gain a greater understanding of issues relating to immigration and cultural diversity.
