利用参与和促进边缘化年轻人参与研究的价值,本文的目的是概述在与经历某种形式的边缘化的年轻人进行研究时面临的实际和程序问题。借鉴了四个不同案例研究的观察和研究经验,这些案例涉及在柬埔寨被监禁的年轻人,生活在印度北部的非正式城市社区,居住在瑞典北部农村或在赞比亚农村上学,在三个主题领域确定了学习。首先,需要与利益相关者发展信任关系,尤其是参与的年轻人,通过多种互动。其次,需要创造性和对环境敏感的研究方法的价值,以使这一过程对年轻人公平和有意义。第三,巩固成年人和年轻人之间的权力关系很重要,研究人员和研究人员,最大化参与。这些发现可以通过详细说明与边缘年轻人参与研究以促进他们参与的机会和挑战,为全球公共卫生领域的未来青年研究提供信息。
Building on the value of engaging with and enabling the participation of marginalised young people in research, the aim of this article was to profile practical and procedural issues faced when conducting studies with young people who experience some form of
marginalisation. Drawing on observations and research experiences from four diverse
case studies involving young people who were either imprisoned in Cambodia, living in informal urban communities in North India, residing in rural northern Sweden or attending school in rural Zambia, learnings were identified under three thematic areas. Firstly, a need exists to develop trusting relationships with stakeholders, and especially the participating young people, through multiple interactions. Secondly, the value of research methods that are creative and context sensitive are required to make the process equitable and meaningful for young people. Thirdly, it is important to flatten power relations between adults and young people, researchers and the researched, to maximise participation. These findings can inform future youth research in the field of global public health by detailing opportunities and challenges of engaging in research with young people on the margins to promote their participation.
