The critical importance of clinical trials
For over two decades the researchers behind the OurFutures programs have been dedicated to establishing the efficacy of the OurFutures programs through focus groups, pilot studies, and eight large randomised controlled trials (RCTs), including over 21,000 students from 240 schools across Australia.
Using evidence-based practices ensures that our programs are reliable and clinically proven to make a long-lasting positive difference in the lives, health, and futures of young people.
Published, peer-reviewed outcomes
The primary outcomes of our RCTs are published in leading peer-reviewed academic journals, and the programs are made available to all schools once they are proven effective. This process takes years of hard work, planning, and dedication. For more information about the research behind our programs, visit our blog article.
