Over the past decade, rising conflict, inequality, and climate change forced millions to flee their homes.
Forced migration is an issue no single country can solve alone, so CPD works to foster government collaboration in the Asia Pacific, advocating for improved regional governance and coordinated responses to mass displacement, long-term solutions to Myanmar’s refugee crisis, and better support for displaced communities in Southeast Asia.
CPD leverages its networks to influence regional policy and national reforms in order to improve the lives of those displaced in the region.
We produce research reports and briefing papers, and coordinate crucial regional forums for candid discussions between leaders across nations and sectors. These include the Asia Dialogue on Forced Migration and the Alternatives to Child Detention Peer Learning Platform.
Through this work CPD has played a critical role in responses to migration crises through helping to strengthen regional responses via ASEAN and the Bali Process and continues to work with government and NGOs both in Australia and throughout Southeast Asia to promote more humane treatment and better outcomes for displaced persons.
At the Centre for Policy Development, our team is at the forefront of policy research and innovation in Australia.
