The Migrant Workers Centre is excited to launch a new webinar series designed to spotlight groundbreaking research and its impact on workplace rights and advocacy.
Our first session will feature leading academics and experts, offering a deep dive into significant research outcomes that are shaping the future for migrant workers in Australia.
With extensive expertise on the Workplace Justice Visa, Laurie Berg will share critical insights on the research and advocacy that led to its implementation.
We will also launch our new research report, ‘Carrot or Stick: When Academic Degrees Become Bargaining Chips for Migration Pathways’, which explores the experiences of past and present international students in Australia.
