Childhood, Ahead of Print.
This article tells the story of the Kentucky Student Voice Team (KSVT), a youth organization that is working toward educational justice in Kentucky by amplifying student voice in education research, advocacy, and policy. In particular, this study examines what makes a healthy intergenerational partnership. Findings reveal three key dimensions of the constitution of healthy intergenerational partnership: the purposeful shifting of power; flexible, vulnerable communication; and ongoing acknowledgement and accommodation to different people, processes, and places. Challenges and opportunities within contemporary collaborative research are also discussed.
