Project background

This is part of my Postdoctoral Fellowship working with A/Prof Chung Tran (Research School of Economics, The Australian National University) on his ARC Discovery Project. The project aims to measure inequality in living standards in Australia over the whole lifetime, and examine the role of the Australian fiscal system in redistributing lifetime resources across households and generations.
