INSIGHT IS LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WITH A MIGRANT BACKGROUND AND THEIR FAMILIES TO
TAKE PART IN A FORUM ON INTER-GENERATIONAL ISSUES CONFRONTING THEM
* If you arrived here as a young person, how are you adjusting to your life in
Australia?
* What are some of the difficulties you are experiencing with your family in
relation to your identity?
* How have you responded to pressure (if any) from your parents to maintain
the family religion and culture?
* How have your parents reacted to some of the decisions you have made in
relation to
education, career path, choice of partner, marriage, level of freedom etc?
* How have world events shaped your migrant experience?
We are looking for people from all backgrounds, but especially young people
who have arrived in Australia more recently from African countries, Afghanistan,
Iraq.
We are also looking for children of migrants who are still coming into conflict
or disagreement with their parents, even after being in Australia for a
generation.
We are also looking for parents who may be willing to participate and address
some of these issues also.
If you are interested, or know anyone who may be interested, please email Carol
ASAP
Please pass this email onto anyone you think may be interested.
Cheers,
Carol Ayoub
