Funded Activity Summary

Relocation after parental separation and the best interests of children. The project is of importance not only for Australia, but internationally, because relocation disputes are a pressing issue around the world in family law. These disputes have become numerous as laws have changed in recent years to reflect the ideal that parents should share responsibility after separation and that children should have regular contact with both of them. This ideal clashes with the promise of divorce that individuals should be able to live their own lives without being unduly bound by ties to the other parent.This will be the world's first such prospective longitudinal study of the outcomes of relocation decisions. The national benefits will include better information for courts in making relocation decisions.
