In this Thesis Proposal Review Telusa will be presenting her current research to explore care arrangements of Tongan migrant workers in Australia’s Seasonal Worker Program (SWP) and their families in Tonga. She will address the possible impacts participating
in this scheme has had on care relationships, when female or male migrant worker within a household leave. Migration is a household decision and these decisions are based on a number of explanations. Most studies argue migrants are economically driven, where
remittances from earnings are both a cause and an outcome of migration, not only benefitting individuals and their households, but also has widespread benefits on communities and the country as a whole. Research observe low skilled, short-term and temporary
migrant workers move across borders seeking employment. As a short-term temporary migration scheme, SWP has provided financial benefits that have enabled ‘development’ for workers families and communities. Additionally, her research argues that workers
return with new skills from participating in these schemes, which improve their livelihoods.

Before households decide to use migration pathways they must consider family roles and responsibilities, not only within the nuclear family but also in the wider community including the church. More importantly, the availability of care for members of the
households in the home country and provision of care to the workers are crucial factors in the decision-making process. Yet there are limited studies on the multiple care arrangements provided for migrant workers and families in Pacific seasonal labour schemes.
This research seeks to develop an understanding of this phenomenon, which will contribute to current academic migration literature.</p>
