Number 15: The 'growing up' of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children: a literature review 

November 2006 

by Robyn Penman

This literature review was commissioned as part of Footprints in Time—The Longitudinal Study of Indigenous Children, to consolidate what is already known about Indigenous children, and to highlight what information is missing.

It considers the data available for understanding the care giving environment of Indigenous children, and child-specific topics such as early childhood, the school years and pathways outside of school.
