What does Australia look like without international students? What was once a hypothetical question is now the reality as Australia’s travel ban extends indefinitely due to COVID-19. But beyond statistics and numbers, what does it look like to this significant cohort of people and what does it say about us when the government specifically excludes them from welfare support in the middle of a global crisis? Extending beyond our previous episode, this episode seeks to explore the history of Australia’s reliance on international education, specifically from our Asian neighbours (the largest cohort being from China), the COVID-19 international student experiences, and what the post-pandemic world will hold for Australia’s not-so-secret cash cow.
