The Young Lives project is a long-term study of childhood poverty
in developing countries. International experts follow two groups of
children in poor communities in four countries as they grow into
young adults with five rounds of surveys, interspersed with
on-going participatory research with a smaller number of the
children, planned to cover a period of 15 years. This book
represents the engagement of Young Lives with researchers and
debates in the field, reflecting on the first two rounds of data
coming from Ethiopia, India, Peru and Vietnam, with supporting
material from Tanzania and South Africa. Topics include the ethics
of research, the long-term causes and consequences of childhood
poverty, and the resilience and optimism shown by children and
their families. The authors also look at the dynamics of childhood
poverty -- how and why some families move in and out of poverty as
well as learning, children's timeuse and life transitions --
focusing on children's daily lives, their families and communities.
