Leadership Emerging from Migration, Ethnicity, Race and Gender in Australia and the EU

ongoing

"The proposed project ""Leadership Emerging from Migration, Ethnicity, Race and Gender in Australia and the EU"" (Lead-EMERGӔ) at the Jean Monnet Center of Excellence for Institutional Cooperation between the European Union and Australia at the Australian National University focuses on leadership and diversity to empower racialized and migrant women to act for cultural difference. It consolidates and broadens the understanding of academic cooperation at a crucial time in the relationship and bilateral engagement for the education and training of new and better leaders. Lead-EMERGӔ develops from the institutional, race, gender, and leadership studies in the EU and Australia, and addresses the Inclusion and Diversity priorities, with a special focus on institutional, educational, and leadership studies. Lead-EMERGӔ general objectives are: • To develop competence and foster a continuous dialogue between academia and society, including policy-makers at the local and state levels, civil servants, civil society actors, representatives of different levels of education and the media. • To generate knowledge and ideas about practices that enable inclusive, fair and forward-looking leadership that can support policies in the EU and Australia. • To encourage and teach young generations to overcome racial, ethnic, migrant and gendered barriers. • To guarantee a transnational dialogue between institutions through dissemination activities within academic and civil society contexts in the EU and Australia. • To visualize and prioritize diverse and inclusive leadership that helps improve European and Australian public diplomacy. • To develop resources that would equip young people/future leaders with knowledge needed for participation in democratic, inclusive and cohesive society.
