Here it is. Your chance to stand up and be one in a million!
Advance - Global Australian Professionals is pleased to be supporting the Advance One Million More – Census of Australians Abroad.
One Million More – Census of Australians Abroad is an independent online questionnaire that in part mirrors the questions in the Census in Australia, as well as including specific questions that relate to the experiences of Australian expatriates and members of the Australian Diaspora. This is our way of ensuring that you and the one million Australians living outside of our country can also participate.
To date nearly 5,000 Australians have completed the census located at www.onemillionmore.com accounting for more than 8,500 Australians overseas. CEO of Advance, Elena Douglas, said she is encouraged by this start and with the momentum that has continued we expect more than 10,000 Australians will participate in what is a ground breaking initiative.
Please take the time to answer all of the questions. We know it is long but it’s worth it. The survey will take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete.
The information will assist in presenting a clearer picture of Australians like you who have continued to build their lives and careers outside of our national border but who are playing a growing and significant role in our social, economic and cultural future.
All personal information will remain completely confidential. Findings resulting from research based on the Advance One Million More census data will be published and made readily available to everyone in the Diaspora and in Australia.
To date the majority of participants have been from the United States of America and the United Kingdom however Advance is calling for Australians from all over the globe to jump online and help Australia understand more about its offshore population’s economic, housing and lifestyle characteristics. The results of this survey will be analysed by leading demographer, Professor Graeme Hugo, Federation Fellow and Professor of the National Centre for Social Applications of GIS of the University of Adelaide and preliminary results will be available in October 2006.
Thanks for being one in a million.
