Linguistic discrimination is among the critical factors in migrant youth’s dissatisfaction with their lives in regional Australia. This project aims to investigate migrant youth’s experiences and management of such discrimination, and its impact on their linguistic citizenship (sense of belonging associated with language), using an interpretative research approach. Expected outcomes include new knowledge, theory development, and policy recommendations for supporting migrant youth to counteract such discrimination and empower them as more capable citizens. Expected benefits include improving migrant youth’s wellbeing and their connection with regional areas, as well as enhancing understandings of linguistic discrimination in Australia.

语言歧视是移民青年对他们在澳大利亚地区生活不满的关键因素之一。该项目旨在采用解释性研究方法，调查移民青年遭受这种歧视的经历和管理，及其对他们的语言公民身份（与语言相关的归属感）的影响。预期成果包括新知识、理论发展和政策建议，以支持移民青年抵制这种歧视，并赋予他们权力，使他们成为更有能力的公民。预期的好处包括改善移民青年的福利及其与区域的联系，以及提高对澳大利亚语言歧视的认识。
