Preliminary results

Click here for the initial themes from a preliminary analysis of the entry questionnaire to the project. These entry questions give us a sense of our understanding about youth-adult relationships at the beginning of this project and the resulting themes will help shape and refine our research questions.

Strengthen and grow partnerships within the Centre of Excellence for Youth Engagement
Build organizational capacity for intergenerational participatory action research
Provide evaluation and/or address specific issues identified youth and organizational partners
