The study aims to provide the data for a comprehensive understanding of Australian children’s development in the current and future social, economic and cultural environment, and hence to become a major element of the evidence base for policy and practice regarding children and their families. Growing Up in Australia is one of the largest and most complex studies of this nature that has ever been undertaken in Australia. The Australian Institute of Family Studies is leading a consortium of nine eminent Australian research institutions in the development of this study, which will track the development of two cohorts of young children for at least 7 years.
Growing Up in Australia is a major study funded by the Australian Government Department of Family and Community Services (FaCS) as part of the Australian Government’s Stronger Families and Communities Strategy. This paper presents a discussion of the data management policy and procedures for Growing Up in Australia - the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children (LSAC).
