Branch Migration and the International Dispersal of Families

Past and projected growth of Australia’s older migrant populations

“…On the other hand, it may present novel well-being enhancing opportunities in the forms of wider transnational networks and lifestyle options amongst older Australians. Earlier studies had identified the emergence of economically and socially beneficial transnational family and kinship networks from the migration of highly skilled migrants to Australia and the New Zealand (Baldassar, 2017;Brijnath, 2009Brijnath, , 2020Gilbert, Antoniades, & Brijnath, 2019;Ho, 2002;Parr, Lucas, & Mok, 2000). The advent and proliferation of digital communication technology may also serve to maintain distant support networks and amplify diverse local connections amongst elderly migrants in Australia (Baldassar & Wilding, 2019;Millard, Baldassar, & Wilding, 2018).…”

Linking transnational migrants and transnationalism

“…This is not to be overcritical of some insightful studies of international migration by population geographers (e.g. Parr et al, 2000;Day and White, 2002;Jones and Kittisuksathit, 2003;King and Ruiz-Gelices, 2003). Rather, it is simply to point out that when compared with other subdisciplines of human geography, particularly urban (e.g.…”

Diasporic Medical Tourism: examining tourists’ profiles, antecedents and behavioural intention

“…It was suggested that migration might be behind the most significant tourism flows in the world (UNWTO, 2009). The growth of one of the most important tourism markets -VFR -was proven to be strongly correlated with the increase in migrant families dispersed across countries (Parr et al, 2000).…”
