The neo-liberal assumption is that social media users and user groups can be responsiblised to disrupt online racism. This project analyses a subset of online anti-racism campaigns. The review provides the material to test effectiveness, using surveys. The survey findings will identify the ingredients for effective, safe and efficient online anti-racism intervention. An online anti-racism program will be developed, implemented and evaluated. The development of guidelines for online anti-racism will overtly address the challenges and risks of action in this environment where regulation is so heavily contested.Read moreRead less

This project will be the first study of a neglected but constitutive part of Australia’s social movement history: Arab/Muslim Australian social justice activism. It aims to recover previously untapped oral histories and rare archival collections of Arab/Muslim Australian activists working in anti-racism, anti-war and feminist social movements from the 1970s to date.

Anticipated social and cultural benefits include a greater understanding of the transformative activism of communities whose movement work is often relegated to the margins. Read moreRead less

This project aims to investigate the rippling impacts of immigration detention in the lives of people who were detained as children. Utilising an innovative arts-based, person-centred design, and in partnership with Australia’s national human rights institution and children themselves, the project aims to generate a foundational evidence-base that advances knowledge and provides the basis for improved policy and practice. Addressing the current dearth of evidence concerning the long-term impacts of childhood detention, the project will offer critical recommendations to improve services and reduce harm, while fostering increased public awareness through a high-impact radio documentary that tells the stories of Australia’s forgotten children.Read moreRead less

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.Read moreRead less
