than 50 years, CEDA has delivered informed discourse and rigorous research to

CEDA’s only agenda is to pursue good public policy to progress Australia’s
economic and social development. Since 1960 CEDA has produced more than
3000 publications, research reports and articles highlighting emerging issues and
directions in a diverse range of policy areas. Research in 2019 will focus on
Australia’s long-term budget position, the effects of temporary migration, a survey
