Hear it From the Horses’ Mouth: Listening to African Professionals in Australia

Details

Publication TypeJournal articleAbstractThe study investigated the growing concern of the African professionals who arrived in Australia since 2007. The ongoing concern was based on the lack of job opportunity in their nominated skilled occupation in post arrival in Australia. The study used demographic questionnaire and semi-structured interview to elicit information from forty (40) participants from Western Australia and Northern Territory cities and regional areas. The data
analysed provided the needed perspectives about the extreme frustration of the African skilled migrants lack job opportunities in the post arrival in Australia. Based on the findings, the study made some recommendations, including counselling implications on several pathways on how African professionals could gain recognition for opportunities in their professional areas.AuthorBolaji, S.Anyama, S.Kuteyi-Imonitie, O.Ibilola, O.Jalloh, S.Date2022Publication CollectionNorthern Institute - Learning Communities: International Journal of Learning in Social ContextsVolume27/ 2022Page Number24-34KeywordAfrican MigrantsCultural Diversity and InclusionAfrican ProfessionalsCounselling implicationsCultural IntegrationISSNISSN 1329-1440 (online)ISSN 2202-7904 (print)PublisherNorthern Institute, College of Indigenous Futures, Education and the Arts CHARLES DARWIN UNIVERSITYPlace of PublicationDarwin
