Social Inclusion and Exclusion Among Australia's Children: A Spatial Perspective

许多研究表明，儿童所经历的社会经济劣势对健康和福祉有重大不利影响，并将持续到他们的余生。该项目将提供量化证据，分析澳大利亚儿童中各种形式的不利地位和社会排斥的当前空间分布，以及过去15年来这些空间格局的任何变化，从而为国家带来重大利益。这一增强的证据基础将有助于各级政府就基于需求的政府服务规划作出决定，并制定可能的政策对策。

Numerous studies have shown that socio-economic disadvantage experienced by children has major adverse effects on health and well-being that persist for the rest of their lives. This project will deliver major national benefits by providing quantitative evidence and analysis of the current spatial distribution of various forms of disadvantage and social exclusion among Australia's children and of any changes to these spatial patterns during the past 15 years. This enhanced evidence base will assist all levels of government in decisions about needs-based planning of government services and in the development of possible policy responses.
