But his historic victory, in fact, resulted from the inception and steady growth of a determined and well-organised local labor movement – one that owed much of its origins to the zeal of Cornish copper miners who settled in the Mid North and on Yorke Peninsula during the early decades of the colony. As Philip Payton explains in this meticulously researched and superbly told story, among the many cultural traditions the Cornish brought with them was a belief in education and self-improvement, a deep devotion to the Methodist faith and an oftentimes fiery attachment to radical politics. In their vii adopted home of South Australia, these traits helped create an embryonic trade union movement and, in turn, led to the formation of the forerunner of today’s Labor Party. -

2013 MIGRATION UPDATE Ebbs and Flows of Regional Migration
2013 MIGRATION UPDATE Ebbs and Flows of Regional Migration CONFERENCE PROGRAM 19 September 2013 The Science Exchange 55 Exchange Place, ADELAIDE Don Dunstan Foundation Level 3, 230 North Terrace ADELAIDE SA 5000 t: 08 8313 3364 • e: [email protected] • w: www.dunstan.org.au www.facebook.com/dondunstanfoundation • www.twitter.com/DonDunstan 2013 MIGRATION UPDATE CON FERENCE Foreword The Don Dunstan Foundation, in partnership with the three South Australian Universities, is hosting the 2013 Migration Update, The Ebbs and Flows of Regional Migration. This well-established South Australian initiative combines the research power of the Universities with the policy capability of the public service and the service delivery capability of the not for profit humanitarian service sector to inform the migration debate in Australia and the State. Where immigrants settle is important. It has a great deal of influence on their wellbeing and on how successfully they adjust to life in Australia. It also has important effects on national population distribution. Contemporary patterns of migration around the globe are differing somewhat from traditional settlement of migrants in large ‘Gateway Cities’ and this emerging trend is clearly evident in Australia as well. While demographic and economic changes are important drivers of this change shifts in policy have also played a significant role. Demographic and economic trends dictate that international migration will play a bigger role in economic and population growth in non-metropolitan areas in the future and that immigrants will be an increasingly important part of regional development in Australia and South Australia. However, there are a plethora of issues associated with the new geography of immigrant settlement that need to be addressed. -

2012 MIGRATION UPDATE Migration and Social Transformation
2012 MIGRATION UPDATE Migration and Social Transformation CONFERENCE PROGRAMME 12 October 2012 The Science Exchange 55 Exchange Place, ADELAIDE Don Dunstan Foundation Level 3, 230 North Terrace ADELAIDE SA 5000 t: 08 8313 3364 • e: [email protected] • w: www.dunstan.org.au www.facebook.com/dondunstanfoundation • www.twitter.com/DonDunstan 2012 MIGRATION UPDATE CONFERENCE Foreword The Migration Update conference aims to provide a comprehensive update about current research in South Australia on contemporary refugee and migration matters. They have been organised in recognition of the fact that migration and refugee policy issues in Australia are likely to remain high on the public agenda for the foreseeable future. These conferences are designed to bring together researchers, policy makers, service providers and the broader community interested in ensuring that public debate on these issues is informed by high quality research. The Don Dunstan Foundation, in partnership with the three South Australian Universities, is hosting this South Australian initiative. It recognises that regional perspectives on migration and refugee issues, and the impacts of migration on regions and communities, are often given less space in national debates. This is despite the fact that while immigration and border control are federal responsibilities, migrant integration and inclusion are largely the responsibilities of sub-state and local governments, and this is where social transformations take place. The focus of the 2012 Migration Update conference is understanding and responding to the complex, two-way relationship between social change and migration. Ageing, the subject of two of the keynote addresses, is a case in point: South Australia, along with other Western countries, welcomes migrants as a way to redress labour shortages and rejuvenate ageing communities. -
