Abstract
As the Director of the Andrew & Renata Kaldor Centre for International Refugee Law at UNSW Sydney, Jane McAdam provided a short submission to the Inquiry into strengthening Australia’s relationships with countries in the Pacific region.
One of the Kaldor Centre’s areas of expertise is mobility in the context of climate change and disasters, particularly in the context of the Pacific. This submission focuses on how mobility must remain a core element of Australia’s engagement and initiatives with the Pacific if the long-term stability, security and prosperity of the region is to be enhanced.
