A good match: Optimising Australia's permanent skilled migration
Temporary migration in Australia (2019)
Migration – the skills mismatch
CEDA's recent submission
Federal Parliament's Joint Standing Committee on skilled migration. Read the submission.
Lead researcher – Jarrod Ball, Chief Economist
There are worrying signs that the Australian economy has become less dynamic and competitive across these areas and a broader range of indicators, such as slow growth in our start-up sector, weak private sector investment and declining business expenditure on R&D. All of this has contributed to Australians’ flatlining incomes in recent years.
This year, working with members across business, higher education and government, CEDA will explore:
• The practices within companies and management that are holding back dynamism – a much neglected area of research in Australia compared to other advanced economies.
• How Australia can lift collaboration between universities, businesses and government to better diffuse and commercialise our world class research and knowledge.
