The Young Lives team has published over 900 papers investigating many aspects of childhood and youth poverty over the 20 years of the study.  The datasets from all rounds of the household and child survey and our school surveys are publicly archived and available to download from the UK Data Archive.  Our ground breaking longitudinal research with 12,000 children growing up in 4 different countries has enabled us to create new methods and approaches for studies of this kind.
