Funded Activity Summary

Korean Migration to Australia. This project aims to investigate Korean migration to Australia from 1924 to 2024 by utilising undiscovered historical government data and advancing an innovative theory and methodologies for migration studies. The project expects to generate a great deal of new knowledge on early and contemporary Korean immigrants in Australia using archival research, statistical analyses, online surveys and interviews. Expected outcomes include a new public database, theory development and refined methods using technology. This should provide significant benefits such as advancing our knowledge on colonial, post-war and post-Cold War Korean migrants (both North and South) in Australia as well as Australia-Korea relations over the past century.
