TTPI Seminar Series
This presentation outlines preliminary research examining how and why intergenerational mobility differs between children of migrants and those with Australian-born parents. With nearly one-third of Australians born overseas (ABS, 2021), we investigate whether certain migrant groups experience persistent disadvantage, with a particular focus on gender differences and the mechanisms that may explain these gaps.
