This study exploring poverty and disadvantage through the lens of young Australians has found a significant number are missing out on items and experiences deemed essential for living a normal life, like fresh fruits and vegetables every day, internet access at home, school excursions, family holidays and some money of their own. Researchers from UNSW Sydney say the study sheds important new light on the nature of child poverty, including its impact on well-being and attitudes to schooling.
