点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The project seeks to make use of place-based perspectives to map the workforce and business landscape of the Southwest Sydney region. It will identify the types of industry and social enterprises, potential employment and enterprise opportunities, and local organisations’ capacity to work with newly arrived migrant women in the context of socio-economic recovery from the COVID19 pandemic. Using a strengths-based approach, a survey and interviews will help understand young migrant women’s potential, interests, skills, and knowledge gaps in career advancement. Informed by data from the findings, the project will co-create an online career hub co-hosted with Partner Organisations which will be of long-term benefit to newly arrived communities.
