Notes

2. Australian Research Council (Discovery grant, 2002–2004), ‘Young Women Negotiating from the Margins of Education and Work: Towards Gender Justice in Educational and Youth Policies and Programs’. Researchers on this qualitative project, which investigated the lives of young women and their mothers in two States, Victoria and South Australia, include Julie McLeod, Jane Kenway, Alison Mackinnon, Andrea Allard, Elizabeth Bullen, Danni Nicholas-Sexton and Katie Wright. We wish to acknowledge the crucial support of the Australian Research Council.
