Ukraine Footy 9s jumper front
AUSTRALIA & UKRAINE
One of the first Ukrainian migrants to Australia was Mykhailo Hlyb, who established a sheep farm in the 1860s. Prior to World War I, up to 5,000 Ukrainians migrated to Australia. However, the main body of Ukrainians emigrated to Australia along with other nationalities in the post-World War II wave of refugees from Europe. Currently, the main concentrations of Ukrainians are located in Sydney and Melbourne.

Resident Australian population born in Ukraine (2016 census) – 13,366
Australian residents of Ukrainian descent (2016 census) – 46,186
