A toolkit supporting children’s meaningful and ethical participation in research relating to violence against children
“This toolkit was designed to encourage meaningful and ethical participation by children in research related to violence against children. It promotes research that sees children as active agents in their own lives, not passive victims or research ‘subjects’.” Highlighting the importance of involving children in both primary and secondary research, "this kit aims to give guidance on ways of approaching this work, on ethical issues to be considered, and on techniques that can be used.”
