National Church Life Survey

NCLS Research is an Australian organisation that surveys Australian community attitudes and runs studies on churches in Australia every 5 years called National Church Life Surveys.

[1] The 2001 NCLS was conducted in international partnership with organisations from Australia, England, New Zealand and the United States.

[6] The article states that The Wellbeing and Security Survey 2003 was conducted in co-operation with Edith Cowan University, Perth, Australia and ANGLICARE (Sydney).

[10] Initial results from the 2011 survey show that six out of 10 adult church members are female.

Individually, church members are much more likely to be volunteers in their communities than the average Australian.
