History

There have been three major influxes of Bosnians to Australia. The first period occurred in the aftermath of World War II, and the second occurred in the late 1960s/early 1970s following an economic depression and open border policy in the former Yugoslavia.[1]

The most recent wave of migration was during the 1990s when many Bosnians sought refuge from the Bosnian War. This migration was assisted under the refugee scheme of the Red Cross in Australia.

By 1996, a year after the Bosnian War had ended, almost 14,000 migrants from Bosnia and Herzegovina were living in Australia. Most of the new arrivals settled in Victoria and Bosnia and Herzegovina was the fifth-largest source of migrants to Victoria in 1995-96.

By 2011, Victoria was home to 8,486 people from Bosnia and Herzegovina, with a predominant concentration in the Dandenong area.

Bosnian migrants who arrived in Australia in the 1960s made important contributions to modern-day Australia through their role in the construction of the Snowy Mountains Scheme in New South Wales.[2]

Demographics

The majority of Bosnians reside in the south-east of Melbourne and in the south-west of Sydney.

Bosnian run mosques can be found in Deer Park, Noble Park, Penshurst, Smithfield, Eight Mile Plains and Caversham.[3]
