In addition to our Daily news, Deaf Connect produces ‘deep dive’ videos which provide more detail and context to the biggest stories of the week.

Today’s deep dive focuses on… Disability and Immigration

Imagine facing deportation from the only home you’ve ever known because of a disability – this was the reality for Kayban Jamshaad, an eight-year-old born in Australia.

His family’s relentless battle against the migration system highlights a significant issue many face.

But recent changes in Australian immigration policy could mean a brighter future for Kayban and others like him.

This project is funded by the Federal Government Department of Social Services Information, Linkages and Capacity Building (ILC) program.
