Abstract

Drawing on interactions with more than 120 young people across Uganda, Maya Turolla and Haley Swedlund provide an analytical framework to help researchers and policymakers to better study and tailor “youth” interventions. They argue that rather than simply targeting youth as an age-bracket, policies and programs need to consider the diversity of experiences and challenges faced by young people.
