YRN Research Areas

Projects funded under The National Youth Agency Young Researcher Network Programme take as their central focus the realities and lived experiences of young people from their own perspectives.

"All the research projects are young people-led and are research for change"

Research findings will be available from November 2008 and will be showcased at The YRN conference.

The YRN research areas are:

  • Volunteering
  • Disability
  • Looked after Young People
  • Alcohol Use
  • Media
  • Hate Crime and Restorative Justice
  • Health
  • The local Youth Offer
  • Identity
