Funded Activity Summary

Humanitarian immigrant entrepreneurs in private and social enterprises. The project aims to provide, for the first time, a detailed understanding of the experiences of male and female humanitarian immigrant entrepreneurs in private and social enterprises in urban and regional Australia, and critically evaluate how these entrepreneurs help redress the settlement problems and socio-economic disadvantage of humanitarian immigrants and contribute to economic growth and social cohesion in Australia. One key aim will be to further develop the theory of Diasporic entrepreneurship. The benefits are expected to include an evaluation of effective strategies and policies to improve existing humanitarian immigrant enterprises and to stimulate the creation of new humanitarian immigrant enterprises.
