Developing Best Practice for Settlement Services for Refugee Women-at-Risk

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

As one of the few countries offering a Woman-at-Risk visa category, Australia is committed to providing support to this vulnerable group during the process of settlement. Each year, approximately $17 million is allocated to women at risk to assist with the process of settlement; however, there is a paucity of research to inform settlement practice specific to this group. This project aims to understand the determinants of psychosocial wellbeing for women-at-risk during settlement and to draw upon the ecological model of community psychology to inform the design and delivery of settlement services for this group.
