Black African migrants have recently become a visible presence in Australia. Many arrived through the humanitarian resettlement programme, but far greater numbers come through the “skilled stream”. This paper explores recent research into these populations to tease out how material, social and existential elements of settlement intersect with belonging. As a heuristic, it uses Ager and Strang's ten markers and means of integration: material aspects (employment, housing, education and health); social connections internally and externally; facilitators (language, cultural knowledge, safety, stability); and rights and citizenship. A range of challenges to positive settlement and integration are identified, using these domains. However, Australian research has focused almost exclusively on African migrants of refugee background, with most sampling South Sudanese, making generalization impossible, even dangerous. The urgent need for research using wider samples, and more large-scale quantitative work, is called for and a range of policy recommendations suggested.

属于这片土地：澳大利亚的非洲黑人

黑人非洲移民最近在澳大利亚成为一个引人注目的存在。许多人通过人道主义重新安置计划抵达，但更多的人来自“技术流”。本文探讨了最近对这些人群的研究，以梳理定居点的物质、社会和存在元素如何与归属感相交。作为一种启发式方法，它使用了 Ager 和 Strang 的十个标记和整合手段：物质方面（就业、住房、教育和健康）；内部和外部的社会关系；促进者（语言、文化知识、安全、稳定性）；以及权利和公民身份。使用这些领域，确定了积极解决和融合的一系列挑战。然而，澳大利亚的研究几乎完全集中在具有难民背景的非洲移民上，大多数抽样南苏丹人，使概括不可能，甚至是危险的。迫切需要使用更广泛的样本和更大规模的定量工作进行研究，并提出了一系列政策建议。
