| Summary |
This scoping study explores the nature of relations between parents and adolescents in newly-arrived migrant communities in Victoria as families negotiate the challenges of migration, settlement, and integration. Young people in particular face tensions from the multiple cultural influences on their identity. The study aims to identify key issues for policy and practice development, and the specific supports needed to help improve intergenerational relations and settlement. It draws on a review of the literature as well as roundtables with community members and agencies. The roundtables considered: the cultural challenges facing newly emerging and migrant communities; the reasons behind financial stress within these communities; parent concerns over the influence of friends and teachers on children; and language barriers between young people and their parents |
