About us
Who we are
Young Lives is a unique longitudinal study of poverty and inequality that has been following the lives of 12,000 children in Ethiopia, India (Andhra Pradesh and Telangana), Peru and Vietnam since 2001.
Over two decades of research, Young Lives has generated unmatched insights into the dynamics of poverty and inequality in the lives of the children, from their early years, through adolescence, and into young adulthood.
Our mission is to deliver ground-breaking research that informs policy on how poverty, intersecting inequalities and new vulnerabilities affect the lives of disadvantaged children and young people and what can be done to improve their life outcomes.
The study is unique in that it directly links the evidence-base of research to policymakers and planners, both in the study countries and internationally.
