Stuck in Transit - International student update
The pandemic has hit the international education sector hard. Over 100,000 international students were stuck overseas when Australia's borders first closed in February 2020. New international students are unable to enter the country.
Despite numerous proposals, almost all efforts to bring back international students have been unsuccessful.
This policy brief examines these issues using data from the Department of Education, Skills and Employment (DESE), the Department of Home Affairs (DHA), and the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS). This research considers the impact of online enrolments.

This includes a person’s interaction with systems and services, such as education, health, immigration, justice, transport, workplaces, group homes and other accommodation arrangements, and the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
