Intergenerational Migration in Pacific Labour Schemes
Abstract
This In Brief reports on a longitudinal case study documenting the stories of ni-Vanuatu who follow their parents into cross-border migration, either participating in Australia’s Pacific Australian Labour Mobility (PALM) scheme or New Zealand’s Recognised Seasonal Employer (RSE) scheme. As children of the initial cohort of the RSE longitudinal study have reached adulthood, many have opted, like their parents, to participate in seasonal work abroad.
