As Australia considers its role in the Pacific it is imperative to understand the changing transnational ties of Pacific Islanders. A decline in ties such as remittances will have far-reaching implications for vulnerable Island economies and societies, and this study of 'second generation? Tongans will assess the extent to which transnational ties are likely to persist. Australia is Tonga's primary provider of development cooperation, and a decline in these ties will impact on this relationship. The project will contribute to planning for Australia's future relationship with Tonga and the Pacific region in areas such as aid, migration and security.

在澳大利亚考虑其在太平洋地区的作用时，必须了解太平洋岛民不断变化的跨国关系。汇款等联系的减少将对脆弱的岛屿经济和社会产生深远影响，这项关于汤加第二代人的研究将评估跨国联系可能持续的程度。澳大利亚是汤加发展合作的主要提供者，这些联系的减少将影响这种关系。该项目将有助于规划澳大利亚与汤加和太平洋地区在援助、移民和安全等领域的未来关系。
