The conditions of police custody have received national and international criticism since the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody. Youth detainees are amongst the most vulnerable. Using a case study design in three Australian states, this project aims to attend to these concerns by building new knowledge about police custody and young people from multiple perspectives. Results will inform evidence-based solutions grounded in human rights principles. Intervening early in the criminal justice process to address young people’s health and wellbeing needs can prevent their future re-incarceration and derive significant social and economic benefits, including government savings in social services, policing, the courts and prisons.

自从皇家委员会调查土著人在拘留中死亡事件以来，警察拘留的条件受到了国内和国际的批评。青年被拘留者是最脆弱的群体之一。该项目采用澳大利亚三个州的案例研究设计，旨在通过从多个角度建立关于警察拘留和年轻人的新知识来解决这些问题。结果将为基于人权原则的循证解决方案提供信息。在刑事司法程序中及早干预，满足青年人的健康和福祉需求，可以防止他们今后再次入狱，并产生重大的社会和经济效益，包括政府在社会服务、治安、法院和监狱方面的节省。
