Abstract	The seven papers collected in this report cover the educational and labor market experiences of migrant youth in Australia. Most of the papers address the question of how these youths are affected by government labor programs and services. "Migrant Unemployment in the First Year of Labour Market Activity" (Paul W. Miller) reports that migrants, and refugees in particular, face high unemployment. "Explaining Unemployment Experience: Social, Structural and Birthplace Variations in Australia" (Ian McAllister) assesses unemployment difference between different birthplace migrant groups. "Careers Education: Cinderella of Schooling" (Diana F. Davis) evaluates the availability and adequacy of careers education and counseling services for migrant youth. "Ethnic Groups and Post-Compulsory Education" (Gerald Burke and Denis Davis) reviews the participation of ethnic groups in higher education and programs within the "Technical and Further Education" sector. "The Community Employment Program: A Slim Share for Migrants" (Tony Pensabene, Grazyna Mackiewicz, and Runda Beirouti) examines migrant participation in a program which provides employment opportunities through labor-intensive projects. "A Study of Migrant Participation in the Special Youth Employment Training Program" (Peter Shergold, Tony Pensabene, and Antoon Boey) evaluates migrant participation in a wage subsidy scheme which encourages employers to take on and train unemployed youth. "Migrants in the Community Youth Support Scheme" (Marie Kabala) reviews a program which provides grants to community-based, publicly elected committees to offer unemployed youth activities to increase their employability and provide them with support during unemployment.
