Funded Activity Summary

From mainstream to margins: The denormalisation of underage heavy drinking. This mixed-methods study aims to investigate changes in, and contemporary experiences of, heavy drinking for underage young people in Australia. The project expects to generate new knowledge on whether and how processes of ‘de-normalisation’ are shaping heavy drinking practices and experiences of social inclusion for underage young people. Expected outcomes of the project include the development of a contemporary theoretical model of underage drinking. This should provide significant benefits such as advancing understanding of the social and structural factors shaping heavy underage drinking practices. Findings can be used to inform policy directions aiming to holistically maximise health and social wellbeing for young people.
