Beyond Giving Voice

Beyond Giving Voice was a virtual symposium held over three sessions (June 4, 9, and 11, 2020). Scholars explored theoretical, methodological, and ethical implications of claims to be ‘giving voice’ to children through research. (While these presentations are focused on qualitative research with young people, they are also relevant to the design and conduct of research methodologies with other populations.)
