With a consortium of three of Australia's leading early-childhood agencies at its core, the Raising Children website was developed with the help of an extensive network including the Australian Government.
Content partners
Partnerships with specialist content providers have helped the website create a comprehensive range of parenting topics.
Production partners
Joining forces with partners such as IBM and MapShed has helped the Network go above and beyond its original vision for the website.
Experts & advisors
The website is guided by two panels of independent national experts and scrutinised by a team of almost 100 expert reviewers.
A non-profit organisation
The Raising Children Network is made up of three consortium members: the Smart Population Foundation, the Parenting Research Centre and the Centre for Community Child Health.
Parents
Over 1000 parents were consulted at different stages of the website's development, either through focus groups, surveys or 'test-drives'.
Government supported
This website is funded under the Australian Government's Stronger Families and Communities Strategy.
Stakeholders
Interest groups and health, education and child care professionals have helped to guide the development of the website, and will continue to do so.
