RESEARCH PROJECTS

Zooming In: Multiculturalism
Through the Lens of
the Next Generation

This project seeks to contribute to the reimagining of multiculturalism in 21st century Australia by exploring the experiences and attitudes of young people, with a focus on the second generation. Young adults today have grown up in a society in which diversity is the norm and in part, ‘home grown.’ The research seeks to understand how the experience of these young people differs from that of earlier generations, exploring what diversity means to young Anglo Australians, migrant Australians and the Australian-born second generation.

Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Asian-Australians in Victoria

This project is investigating racism in the time of Covid-19 with a focus on Victoria.  In a context where economics, technology and social and cultural politics in multicultural and diverse communities are rapidly changing, the research seeks to understand how the pandemic has shifted the parameters of racism in contemporary Australia along with its impacts on Asian-Australians. We hope with research to spread awareness of the issue with a view to countering it.
