ARACY Report Card - Wellbeing of Australia's Young People
Thursday, 30 October 2008 19:50

The 'ARACY Report Card' presents a summary of the wellbeing of Australia's young people. It provides an international perspective and sets a baseline for future monitoring.

The Report Card has eight domains on the health and wellbeing of young Australians.

  • Material wellbeing - Health and safety
  • Education, training and employment
  • Peer and family relationships
  • Behaviours and risks
  • Subjective wellbeing
  • Participation
  • Environment

The report compares the Australian average, the Indigenous Australian average and international or OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) performance. It shows, that despite our economic prosperity, Australian children do not perform as well as modern society would like to think.

The report card is available at: http://www.aracy.org.au/reportcard.
