Global Trends

Our Ipsos Global Trends programme, which has been running since 2013, provides the evidence and data needed to inform decisions across a range of plausible future scenarios. In this short update, we review the latest changes we see in our Global Trends framework. We have found that attitudes towards purpose are declining for the first time in a decade. People are focusing more inwardly on themselves and their world, rather than the broader problems surrounding them. The polycrisis has arguably worsened, leading to a lower priority on environmental concerns and brand/value alignment among citizens in many countries.
