Research title: You need to have a break: Exploring young people's experiences of wellbeing, leisure and creativity in the school holidays

Research Summary

Research Summary

My research aims to explore how young people in Greater Glasgow feel that their wellbeing is affected by the experiences they have during school holidays and to what extent creative arts experiences and engaging with community arts organisations during this time is important to them. I am using creative and participatory methods in interview and focus group settings with young people and my work is framed within the Capabilities Approach. 

Capabilities Approach / Childhood Studies / young people's wellbeing / school holidays / creativity and creative practice / leisure and play / community arts / creative and participatory research methods with young people
