To support international students, an international student hub has launched in New South Wales. International students who are suffering from wage exploitation, social isolation, and low accommodation standards are the result of the global pandemic, this hub will help them out. To help international students in getting a positive and life-changing experience, this hub will help them a lot. It is a unique project as it is completely led by community groups. 

It would be a platform for capacity building, making a bond between people on visas and citizens, leadership workshops, and meaningful projects to enhance the student’s experience.
