It considers how to use research evidence to reduce social disadvantage through translation of evidence to support public policies and programs.

Th presents evidence using high-quality and recent data. With a focus on Australia, the volume provides new insights into how context shapes life course pathways and outcomes and a contrast to work that typically focuses on Europe and the United States.
