About ACODA

ACODA is a longitudinal study that aims to provide the big picture of digital technology use in early childhood.

By engaging thousands of families across Australia, we will learn more about how digital technologies are used by young children and understand the impact of technology use.

The survey is run by Wallis on behalf of the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for the Digital Child (Digital Child).

The ACODA survey closes on 30 April 2024.

Be part of a world-first study to investigate children’s digital engagement at a population level, documenting and tracking patterns of more than 3000 Australian families and their children from six months to five years of age.
