Towards an enhanced understanding of child and youth social exclusion risk at a small area level in Australia

该项目将产生重大的国家效益，提高我们对小地区儿童和青年社会排斥风险的理解，并使澳大利亚处于儿童福祉研究的前沿。社区将受益于在地方一级提供高质量、严格制定的儿童和青年不利状况衡量标准。该项目的结果将为政策制定者提供工具，制定措施，为澳大利亚年轻人克服不利条件，缩小结果差距。国际小组将确保在其他有兴趣制定儿童和青年不利情况小范围措施的国家广泛提供方法学上的发展。

This project will produce major national benefits, improving our understanding of child and youth social exclusion risk at a small area level, and putting Australia at the forefront of research into child well-being. Communities will benefit from the availability of high quality, rigorously developed measures of child and youth disadvantage at a local area level. Results from this project will provided policy makers with tools to develop measures for overcoming disadvantage and narrowing gaps in outcomes for Australia's young people. The international team will ensure that methodological developments will be widely available in other countries interested in developing small area measures of child and youth disadvantage.
