UQ PHD student Ana Borges attended a two-day workshop from 19-21 July to discuss family and migration in the South Pacific region, and present her research paper titled 'Immigration and Domestic Violence: The impact of law on women’s wellbeing in Australia'. The workshop involved seven students from the region and was funded by a Universitas 21 (U21) grant led by the University of Hong Kong, the University of Singapore and The University of Queensland. The meeting has also resulted in the formation of the U21 Family and Migration Network. The Network will create a repository of ideas for policy development and provide further opportunity to collaborate and disseminate research on the topic.
