Abstract

Australia is recognised as a nation of immigrants. Throughout the last two centuries people from many different cultural groups and regions of the world have arrived and helped shape this country's social and economic environment. This paper looks briefly at some of the different groups who have settled in Australia and their contributions to activities such as mining, construction and scientific research.
