The Australian Survey of Secondary Students and Sexual Health (SSASH) is a national study conducted by the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society, La Trobe University. This study explores the sexual health and well-being of Australian adolescents. The anonymous survey asks questions about knowledge, behaviour and educational experiences related to sexual health and well-being. The Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care has funded this survey approximately every 5 years since 1992.

The Profile publication, produced annually, provides a demographic snapshot of children and young people (aged 0 to 17 years) in WA. It highlights those experiencing vulnerability and hardship, including those within the juvenile justice system, out-of-home care, with disabilities, or living in poverty.

Our Watch conducted a survey to ask parents of children from 0 to 3 years old what they think about gender equality and violence against women, how they divide key household tasks and childrearing responsibilities within their family, and whether they believe that gender has an impact on their children.
