Where are the Babies? The spatial distribution and mobility of Indigenous Infants in the Northern Territory

Details

Publication TypeResearch BriefAbstractTo explore the mobility and migration of Indigenous mothers and their infants associated with transport to towns with maternity hospitals from remote Indigenous communities. We will examine Census data for an ‘excess’ in the five towns with a maternity hospital and a ‘deficit’ at remote Indigenous communities and also look at the mobility and migration patterns of mothers who recently gave birth. _x000D_AuthorCarson, D.Berger, V.Taylor, A.Publication CollectionNorthern Institute Research BriefsIssue6CopyrightThe Northern Institute, 2013ContactAndrew Taylor 8 8946 6692 andrew.taylor@cdu.edu.auPublisherNorthern Institute, Charles Darwin UniversityPlace of PublicationDarwin
