Abstract
Emigration from Zimbabwe has been quite well documented by the Southern African Migration Project and by other writers, most recently the Edgar & Lucas article, Zimbabwes Emigrants: Growth and Change in Australia, in the December 2016 issue of the Australian Review of African Studies. This paper extends the 2016 article with a particular focus on diasporas and stepwise migration, adding to material on other former British territories in southern and eastern Africa. This paper uses three databases and other sources to consider the following questions: (1) is the movement of Europeans from these former British territories a diaspora or return migration; (2) what proportions go where, or do not emigrate; and (3) how prevalent is stepwise migration for example, from Zimbabwe to Australia via South Africa?
