Abstract: type="main" xml:lang="en">

This article provides an overview of youth longitudinal surveys in Australia and introduces five papers from the Longitudinal Surveys of Australian Youth research forum ‘Are We There Yet? Youth Transitions in Australia’, held at the Australian National Maritime Museum, Sydney, on 11 April 2013. Youth longitudinal surveys have a long history in Australia, dating back to the Youth in Transition study, which commenced with a cohort of young people born in 1961. The latest incarnation is the Longitudinal Surveys of Australian Youth, which has tracked cohorts of Year 9 students selected in 1995 and 1998 and 15-year olds in 2003, 2006 and 2009. These young people are interviewed up to the age of 25 years as they move from school into further study and work.
