The mission of CIRCY is that our research is relevant to the real world and, as such, we are interested in innovation.
We aim to leverage our research findings making them relevant to policy and practice and, specifically, to use the latest thinking in childhood and youth studies and cognate disciplines to inform creative new approaches for working with and providing for children and young people.
CIRCY is committed to working collaboratively with professionals, policy-makers, children and young people to bring research into practice - in the UK and internationally. At the same time we are keen to hear from professionals, policy-makers, children and young people looking for research partners to develop their practices.
Part of our innovation strand includes providing short and long-term research and evaluation consultancy services, research and professional training, as well as expert advice.
