The second Building Family Futures (Langa Kaha’u Ma’ae Famili) workshop in Ha’apai continued the journey of supporting PALM scheme workers and their families as they transition back into life in Tonga.

Throughout the workshop, returned workers and their families came together to explore ways to strengthen family wellbeing and plan confidently for the future. The sessions encouraged reflection, shared learning, and practical discussions on how families can build on the experiences and opportunities gained through the PALM scheme.

Delivered through the Family-Centred Assistance to PALM Scheme Workers (FCA-PALM) Pilot, this initiative is supported by the Australian Government and implemented by IOM in partnership with the Tongan Ministry of Internal Affairs and Ministry of Trade and Economic Development.

Empowering International students at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS)

IOM’s immigration professionals have delivered an interactive information session at UTS to support international students in navigating their visa options after graduation.

The session provides a clear overview of post study visa pathways, highlighting key requirements, answering questions, and offering practical steps to help students take charge of their migration journey.

Whether planning to stay in Australia temporarily, or explore pathways to permanent residency, students are more informed to make more confident decisions about their future.

A big thank you to the UTS team for their support in organising the session, and to all the students who joined us and contributed such thoughtful questions. We look forward to continuing these conversations.
