Abstract
The MnM Centre has released a new report that focuses on Australians’ perceptions of Muslims, in particular levels of Islamophobia, feelings of social distance and concern about terrorism. It investigates how demographic factors such as age, religion, place of residence, employment status and political views affect the likelihood that someone is Islamophobic, feels socially distant from Muslims, or is worried about a terrorist attack.The research for this study was supported by grants from the Life Course Centre (LCC), an Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Children and Families over the Life Course at the Institute of Social Science Research, University of Queensland and the International Centre for Muslim and non-Muslim Understanding of the Hawke Research Institute, University of South Australia.
