Doing Children's Geographies provides a useful resource for all
those embarking on research with young people. Drawing on
reflections from original cutting-edge research undertaken across
three continents, the book focuses on the challenges researchers
face when working with children, youth and their families. The book
is divided into three sections. The first section provides
alternatives to some of the difficulties researchers face and
highlights methodological innovations as geographers uncover new
and exciting ways of working. The second part specifically
addresses the issues surrounding children and youth's participation
providing critiques of current practice and offering alternatives
for increasing young people's involvement in research design.
Finally, the book broadens to a consideration of wider areas of
concern for those working with children and youth. This section
discusses the nature of childhood in relation to research, the
place of emotions in research with young people and the process of
undertaking applied research. This book was previously published as
a special issue of Children's Geographies
