Summary
Gender differences in the prevention of youth victimisation and offending. This project aims to investigate how early family, individual, and school factors can be targeted to prevent victimisation and offending among vulnerable male and female young people. This project expects to generate new knowledge on: 1) gender-specific risk and protective factors of victimisation and offending; and, 2) the effectiveness of school-based social-emotional learning programs for males and females. Expected ou ....Gender differences in the prevention of youth victimisation and offending. This project aims to investigate how early family, individual, and school factors can be targeted to prevent victimisation and offending among vulnerable male and female young people. This project expects to generate new knowledge on: 1) gender-specific risk and protective factors of victimisation and offending; and, 2) the effectiveness of school-based social-emotional learning programs for males and females. Expected outcomes include advancing developmental life-course theories for female offending. This project should provide significant social and economic benefits for policymakers on how to most effectively prevent male and female young people’s involvement with the criminal justice system.Read moreRead less
Material Deprivation and Social Exclusion among Young Australians: A Child-Focused Approach. This project aims to extend recent research on adult social disadvantage to examine the circumstances of young Australians, aged between 11 and 16 years. New indicators will be developed that build on and reflect the attitudes, views and experiences of young people. The indicators will then be applied to measure the degree of disadvantage using data collected from a large survey of New South Wales school ....Material Deprivation and Social Exclusion among Young Australians: A Child-Focused Approach. This project aims to extend recent research on adult social disadvantage to examine the circumstances of young Australians, aged between 11 and 16 years. New indicators will be developed that build on and reflect the attitudes, views and experiences of young people. The indicators will then be applied to measure the degree of disadvantage using data collected from a large survey of New South Wales school students and a smaller survey of service users. Summary indicators will be developed and used to examine how the nature and severity of disadvantage varies with factors such as age, school and location. The study aims to produce a template for national application in all schools and the initial policy implications of the findings will be explored with key stakeholders.Read moreRead less
Creating pathways to child wellbeing in disadvantaged communities. This project aims to test, in nine disadvantaged communities, a model for action that blends new human and digital resources to support respectful, data-driven collaborations between schools, families and community agencies.
The project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of translational prevention science about how to influence risk and protective factors for child wellbeing in a cost-efficient manner and at a scale ....Creating pathways to child wellbeing in disadvantaged communities. This project aims to test, in nine disadvantaged communities, a model for action that blends new human and digital resources to support respectful, data-driven collaborations between schools, families and community agencies.
The project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of translational prevention science about how to influence risk and protective factors for child wellbeing in a cost-efficient manner and at a scale within existing service systems. Project benefits should include a methodology for achieving lasting improvements in child wellbeing, behaviour and school success.
