What is ARACY?
The
Australian Research Alliance for Children and Youth
(ARACY) was founded by a group of eminent experts and
organisations in reaction to increasingly worrying
trends in the wellbeing of Australia’s young people.
These experts saw the need to work together in new,
collaborative ways in order to find solutions to the
complex problems affecting our children and young
people. It was out of this vision to bring together the
best of minds and the most dedicated organisations that
ARACY was formed.
By using the latest information
technology to span the distances of the nation ARACY has
become a broker of collaborations, a disseminator of
ideas and an advocate for Australia’s future generation.
