Young people act as consultants in child-directed research: an action research study in Iceland

ABSTRACT

This paper evaluates an action research study, conducted in Iceland, which involved young service users as consultants to the research. We used participatory group work methods to activate the young people’s knowledge and guide social workers in developing their practice. The young people’s advice influenced the data generation and analysis, guided the action intervention and contributed to the evaluation. Their emphasis on the quality of relationships and attention to children’s concerns was crucial in developing the concept of child-directed practice.
