Introduction
The concept of migrants is an important element of the population of Australia. Nepalese
Australians are the citizens who are staying in Australia whose ethnic origns lie fully or
partially in Nepal. The people who are living in different refugee camps of Nepal are then
resettled in Australia wherein they share the common language and the culture with
mainstream Nepali. (Adhikary et al., 2018).
Project Objective
The report will discuss about the challenges and the opportunities for the people of Nepal in
Australia. It will highlight about the research methods and their experiences through the
research methods which will include the details related to how Nepalese are able to tackle the
different situations.
Project Scope
Nepalese are able to get the recognition with positive level contribution where migrants play
an important role in the economy as well as the social welfare of people of Australia. But the
overall tolerance and accepting of people is still a challenge among certain sectors of the
population of Australia (Adhikari et al., 2015). There are challenges as well as opportunities
along with policymakers who make sure that the new migrants can settle down successfully.
Literature Review
There are so many people from Nepal that have initiated coming in Australia from the year
1980 and this number was low until recently when the major amount of people from Nepal or
as they called as Nepalese migrants have started arriving in the country mainly in last decade.
In fact, the Nepalese community is now considered as one of the fastest developing
population of immigrants in Australia, developing from only three thousand eight hundred

people in the year 2005 to more than forty-three thousand and five hundred in last decade
(Douglas et al., 2016).
It is crucial to identify that the migration of Nepalese people to a country like Australia is
normally coming from well educated as well as the privileged society of the nation. This
chance to migrate to not just present to the poor or people in need or isolated from rural
locations. It is also important to be careful in order to completely avoid forming of any kind
of stereotype of those Nepalis who have actually immigrated as labelled poor or needy. The
census of 2011 also based their research on seventy-four percent of Nepalese that is living in
Australia held some type of high-level qualification.
There are above eighty percent of migrants from Nepal that have been coming under-skilled
labour visas for past few years, normally bringing the immediate family along with them.
There are some spouses of these families arrive on skill labour visa face many issues while
adjusting to the culture of Australia since all educational professional get in Nepal can be
identified. This further means that many have to set the jobs that are way below the
professional set of skills (Chapagai et al., 2017). For instance, there are people who may have
a level in Nepal can understand themselves as being clean in Australia. This can impact the
sense of people with pride and self-worth as these works can be seen as low caste work in
Nepal.
Justification
The concept of migration is complicated along with multiple faceted as well as multi-
dimension challenges. The complex challenges need connection among people and among
the state level institutions along with global partners and most crucial and the migrants. There
are so many stakeholders collecting was a significant option to bring it at one place important
for the stakeholders with so many angles. Migrants have also asked for a word as well as a

weight. Recently, they depend on just recipients of help from people like us. Now a day, they
are getting some access to gain comfortable as well as possible options for earning (Renzaho
et al., 2012). It needs to be more innovative as well as inclusive based on the approach to
migrate labour. In the current time, Nepal is majorly falling behind as per the basic set of
skills for what one can say as a critical migration mass and this is why young people leave
behind a poor country.
Research Questions/Hypothesis
Primary Question
1. What are the different challenges as well as opportunities for people from Nepal
migrating to Australia?
Secondary Questions
1. What is the percentage of Nepalese people travelling in Australia?
2. What kind of jobs available in Australia for migrant people?
Research Design and Methodology
Qualitative research
Specifically, including qualitative features of collecting data, will make it further possible to
gain clarity on the complicated nature of the features that can be studied and thus a clarity.
The qualitative-based research will thus utilise a detailed questionnaire which can have open
ended and close ended questions.
Quantitative research
The quantitative methodology includes well-structured interview which can be conducted to
the similar number of people on phone and face to face. This will make sure, each interview
will have the similar set of questions.

Sample size
The report depends mainly on using data collection as per census of Australia. There are
other sources of data are based on where it can be applied and can be noted clearly. When it
was specified otherwise, all forms of references where migrants in the report relies on places
of birth as reported in the census, all the data of whether they were born to parents of
Australia globally, grew up in the country or even whether they are citizens now (Poudel et
al., 2018).
Sampling
The study will cover with the simple and random form of sampling methods which can be
used to interview the respondents, answering the question of research and evaluating the
hypothesis.
Variables
The variables, as well as elements in the research, will be categorised as reliable as well as
independent. This depends on variables will consist of age as well as the gender of the
respondents. There are many independent elements that consist of nature of the business,
whether they utilise the standards related to financial accounting, level of impactful of the
financial statements, nature of the company and they also file the taxes.
Data collection
While selecting the sample for the reports, forms of informed permission will be sent out to
the study candidates electronically and delivery. The motive of the study will be explained to
the candidates and answers will be promising since it is confidential and only consist
collectively with the opinions of other participants to make normal conclusion along with
recommendations (Schloenhardt & Craig, 2015).

Data analysis
The answers achieve from the questionnaires will be part of Microsoft Excel, editing as well
as coding which is right. The information will then be later exported as a part of SPSS
version-based data analysis software, analysing and data are shown using descriptive
statistics using modes with a percentage. This further discusses the outcomes that can be
visually shown in kind charts as well as graphs.
Expected Conclusion
Australia has a diverse culture and it is flourishing via a successive wave of a new set of
migrants and everyone adding something to the dynamic level of the face of the country. For
many people the history of Australia since the settlement of Europe, there are migrants from
many other parts of the world like Nepal are becoming the dominating arrival set of groups
(Simkhada et al., 2018). Such kind of trend constantly well into the mid-1990s. In the recent
time, Asia has become the important source of the region for many migrants, specifically
Southern Asia like India, Bangladesh, Nepal and Bhutan and Chinese part of Asia.
Reliability and validity
The usage of mixed methodology in research based on threats to validate and reliable of the
obtained outcomes. For the primary information, a test for the sake of validity and reliable
will be performed to finally find whether the same outcome can be reproduced. But in case of
secondary data, there is no requirement that carries out the test since the data will have
already been mentioned as well assigned as and when passed in the financial statement of
many SMEs (Valentin, 2015).
Research Limitations
Some of the restrictions of the process in the research will be based on terms of the long-time
efforts needed. In addition, the research will get more amount of resources to collect a lot of

data to reply the established questions. while there are many sources of data will be utilised to
be gaining more confidence with many findings of research.
