How Did Young People Fare In The 1990s Economic Downturn

"To provide insights into how young people may fare in the current economic downturn, this study examines the experience of youth in a previous downturn. While it is recognised that each downturn is unique in its own way, and that the pattern of the global financial crisis is different to earlier downturns, these previous experiences are still informative for the current policies. In particular, this study examines the impacts of economic conditions on youth unemployment and education outcomes, using eight waves of the Australian Youth Survey 1989-1996. " - NCVER website.
