Overview

""This book explores the lived experiences of skilled migrant academics in Macau's evolving higher education sector. Through qualitative interviews with teachers born in Macau, internal migrants from Mainland China, and immigrants from the Philippines, the book examines how educators negotiate professional and personal identities in a city shaped by colonial legacies, rapid development, and complex migration flows. Macau's unique blend of East and West, alongside its emergence as an education hub, frames nuanced discussions of migration, place identity, and integration. The book highlights how institutional policies, workplace cultures, and individual agency intersect in migrant teachers' experiences. Migrant academics face challenges of inclusion, linguistic diversity, and social hierarchies that privilege native-born teachers, demanding resilience and adaptation. The author situates these experiences within Macau's integration into the Greater Bay Area, calling for more inclusive policies that value diverse contributions and support social integration. The book offers practical insights into fostering more inclusive and globally engaged academic communities.""
