What Australia Thinks acknowledges and celebrates the First Australians on whose traditional lands we live, work and study.

We pay our respects to the elders of the Ngunnawal and Ngambri peoples past, present and emerging.

We seek to better understand who we are as a nation, where we’ve come from... and where we might be going together in the future.

Australians mostly support the Federal Government using their data to deliver resources and benefits to the population. They are slightly less supportive of sharing data with researchers and are quite concerned both about the safety of their data and the potential for misuse.
