This research sits in the intersectional space between criminology and politics. Oscar's research project is supported by the Australian Government's competitive Research Training Program (stipend) grant, and he is therefore legally required to acknowledge the support of the Australian Government in any publications related to the project. Outside of research, Oscar co-manages a student-led volunteer program that provides low/no-cost tutoring to final year high school students that are facing educational advantage.
