Strengthening Health Workforce Migration to Australia and Canada

该项目旨在确定与关键领域（医学、护理和牙科）相关的技术移民趋势。澳大利亚是为数不多的对引进移徙保健专业人员有明确政策的国家之一。该项目计划评估到2025年是否有可能实现国内自给自足的目标，并审查发展“两级”卫生人力的风险（有条件登记的移徙者在供应不足的部门和地点为病人服务）。然后，它旨在通过基于证据的政策改革，与加拿大（澳大利亚在技术移民方面的主要全球竞争对手）相比，提出改革建议，使移民和卫生政策系统在未来更加有效和合乎道德。

The project aims to define skilled migration trends in relation to the key fields (medicine, nursing and dentistry). Australia is one of very few countries with an explicit policy to import migrant health professionals. The project plans to assess if the goal of domestic self-sufficiency is likely to be met by 2025 and examine the risk of a ‘two tier’ health workforce developing (with conditionally registered migrants servicing patients in undersupplied sectors and sites). It then aims to propose changes to make the migration and health policy systems more effective and ethical in future compared to Canada (Australia’s key global competitor for skilled migrants), through evidence-based policy reform.
