Young people-led research

I want to know all about young people-led research (big or small, academic or non-academic) that has already been conducted, presently underway, or planned for 2008. You do not have to be living in the UK to contribute to this discussion, simply start by answering the questions below:

1) What are you research interest?

2) Why are you doing reserach?

3) What support from adults are you getting and how can it be improved?

4) What do you hope to gain from your research?

5) Is this your second or third attempt at doing research?

6) What went wrong in the past and why will it work this time round?

7) What do you hope to influence or change? Your own knowledge, personal circumstances, or is it for the local community?

We at the Young Researcher Network want to undersanding your own personal journey's in doing research and we hope you will share your experiences and stories in order to support future individuals and groups of young people who want to use the messages from research to bring about change in their lives and communities.
