The Australian Institute of Family Studies
The Australian Institute of Family Studies is the Government’s principal source of specialist research expertise on families, and is uniquely placed to provide research and advice on family wellbeing.
The Institute undertakes high-quality research that informs the Australian Government and the community and influences policy, services and support for families. A key role of the Institute is disseminating widely and effectively the results of its research to a range of stakeholders.
The research journal Family Matters is the main dissemination vehicle for the Institute. The primary purpose of the journal is to keep local and international readers informed about Institute research and about relevant family-related work by other Australian and overseas researchers.
Institute research is also published in a number of other formats including Research papers, Issues papers and Newsletters.
