Children's perspectives
Summary

Young Lives is in the unique position of being able to study and work with a group of 12,000 children over 15 years as they grow up, start school, drop out or leave school, start work, cope with births and deaths in their families, and maybe even get married and have children themselves.

These pages share some of the children?s own perspectives on the world and their reflections and responses to our research ? in their own words. This is an essential part of the Young Lives approach ? to ensure children?s voices are heard and their participation is a core value of the study.
