Future-proofing Australia’s care economy: A relational mobilities approach

该项目旨在调查澳大利亚移民和流动卫生劳动力在全球劳动力严重短缺的背景下的经历。它将探索医护人员的家庭关系和非正式护理责任如何影响他们的移民决定、工作场所的经历和未来的计划。预期成果包括关于医务人员在流动性、护理、知识和技能方面的经验的全面证据基础，以提供可持续和以人为本的政策解决方案。该项目将最大限度地利用澳大利亚吸引和留住高流动性劳动力的能力，以及他们的跨国知识和专业知识，以满足澳大利亚日益增长的护理需求，从而产生显著的效益。

This project aims to investigate the experiences of Australia’s migrant and mobile health workforce in the context of severe worker shortages worldwide. It will explore how healthcare workers’ family relationships and informal care responsibilities shape their migration decisions, experiences in the workplace and plans for the future. Expected outcomes include a comprehensive evidence-base about healthcare workers' experiences of mobility, care, knowledge and skills to inform sustainable and person-centred policy solutions. The project should yield significant benefit by maximising Australia’s capacity to attract and retain a highly mobile workforce and their transnational knowledge and expertise to meet Australia’s growing care needs.
