PROGRESS 2050: Toward a prosperous future for all Australians
CEDA released a research report in November 2017 which considered the economic effects felt in Australia from policy decisions which emerge from geopolitical events.
Do political events in Europe, military tensions in Asia, and policies pursued by the Trump administration herald a structural change in the global policy environment?
Are the norms, standards and institutions that Australia relies on to maintain global relations under challenge?
This research considers the implications for Australia from these actual and potential global shifts:
