The Uppsala University Globalization and Social Cohesion Project

The Uppsala University Globalization and Social Cohesion Project studies how global economic and cultural changes affect social bonds within societies. It explores how increased migration, international trade, and cultural interactions influence social cohesion—trust, community engagement, and social stability. By analyzing these dynamics, the project aims to understand the challenges and opportunities globalization presents for building inclusive, cohesive societies, especially in diverse or changing populations. Its insights help policymakers and communities develop strategies to foster social unity amidst ongoing globalization.
