In this keynote address on Australian
immigration, Michael Pezzullo
will highlight that immigration is a
matter for national governments,
and will discuss how successive
governments within Australia have
both built and shaped the nation,
in part through the management of
immigration.
In reflecting on the past and looking
to the future, Mr Pezzullo will offer
his analysis and insights into the
challenges and opportunities of the
increasing international movement of
people in a globalised world.

the Secretary of the Department of
