Google Search trends 2022: Searches are driven by heightened emotions


New Google Search trends in 2022 show people across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa are filled with heightened emotions as we navigate our ever-changing world.
On the one hand, uncertainty and apprehension over the war in Ukraine, personal finances, and health have led to big changes across the region. For example, search interest for “help ukraine” spiked in Nigeria. At the same time, many people are ready to socialise and make up for lost time after two years of lockdowns and restrictions.

We’ve analysed thousands of high-growth searches from the start of the year to get a better understanding of this duality of emotions. It shines a light on both the confidence and the concerns we collectively feel — and how this is shaping dynamic consumer needs and behaviours.

2022 is the year of two moods: optimism and uncertainty. We’re curious but cautious, and we’re turning to Search for answers.
