Funded Activity Summary

Healthier and sustainable futures for disadvantaged young people. The economic health and social costs to the Australian community of young people who disengage from post-secondary education and employment are immense. Development of National, State and local policy, programs and services for these young people is significantly hampered by a widely acknowledged lack of evidence about disadvantaged young peoples post-compulsory education and employment pathways. This research will establish an evidence base that will inform the development of targeted cross-sectoral government policy and programmatic responses to these young people, improve delivery of relevant health, welfare and education services, thereby enabling disadvantaged young people to create healthier, economically sustainable futures.
