Rethinking impact, evaluation and accountability in youth work is an ESRC-funded research project by researchers at Kings College London.

Over three years, this qualitative research seeks to investigate how impact tools and processes are experienced and enacted by young people and practitioners in youth work settings.

It will involve young people, youth workers, funders, policy makers and policy influencers in sharing, discussing and developing approaches to evaluation and accountability that are congruent with open youth work practice.
