Childhood, Tradition and Change: a national study of the historical and contemporary practices and significance of Australian children's playlore

从1950年代到现在，通过将儿童游戏知识扩展到澳大利亚人的日常生活和社会框架中，该项目将有助于就儿童的教育、娱乐和公共卫生成果进行更广泛的公共和政策讨论。它将增进对过去和当代儿童游戏实践以及影响这些实践的外部影响的了解，并帮助联合国教科文组织和澳大利亚政府界定非物质文化遗产。通过与澳大利亚国家图书馆和维多利亚博物馆的伙伴关系，该项目将通过出版物、会议和公开展览向社区传播其调查结果。

Through extending knowledge of children's playlore in the daily lives and social frameworks of Australians from the 1950s to the present, this project will contribute to broader public and policy discussions concerning educational, recreational and public health outcomes for children. It will enhance understanding of past and contemporary children's play practices and the external influences shaping these, and assist UNESCO and the Australian government in defining intangible cultural heritage. Through partnerships with the National Library of Australia and Museum Victoria, the project will disseminate its findings to the community through publications, conferences and public exhibitions.
