Description

Enhancing settlement outcomes for migrants in regional Australia. This project will examine challenges that migrants and refugees experience resettling in regional Australia. The project will utilise linked ‘big’ and longitudinal data to quantify the nature, magnitude, and trajectories of settlement outcomes. By examining migration pathways and using group decision-making techniques with participants in selected regional locations, solutions will be identified and ranked. A roadmap will then be developed that can support and improve regional migrant settlement to (re)vitalise regional communities. Our findings will lead to socio-economic and cultural benefits through effectively helping the Australian government realise the goals of its Regional Settlement Program for migrants and host communities..
