Survey for Australian Expats

Many people will recall Professor Graeme Hugo's significant research into the Australian expatriate community, published in final form in December 2003:

The Southern Cross Group has now been contacted by a PhD student at the University of Adelaide called Kelly Parker. Kelly is working with Professor Hugo on a research project looking at the experiences of Australians moving between Australia and the United States. Kelly's aim is to capture the profiles of as many and as diverse a range of Australians as possible and learn about their experiences and what their movement to the United States means to Australia. 

Please do your bit towards achieving a better understanding of the United States aspect of Australia's diaspora.  If you are in the United States, please take a few minutes to complete the survey.  If you are not in the United States, then please forward this message on to any Australians you may know who are.

The survey can be accessed at:

Individual responses are completely confidential; all results will be presented in aggregate form and will be used for academic purposes only.  Kelly has promised to keep the SCG updated as the study progresses and inform us of all research results.

If you have questions about this project, or are willing to be one of a number of Australians in the US interviewed by Kelly about the findings of the survey at a later date, please contact her directly:
