Examining and supporting youth, education and wellbeing on a complex planet
Welcome to the Young Lives Research Lab
We co-develop and house Kate Tilleczek’s lively program of research that is built in reciprocal collaboration with youth and youth-serving groups across countries, communities, cultures and worldviews.
Kate holds the SSHRC-funded, cross-sector Tier 1
Canada Research Chair in Youth, Education & Global Good
WHAT WE DO
We work across three integrated areas of research to conduct unique research alongside young people and their communities to investigate their lives and experiences and co-design educational resources and opportunities to better support wellbeing of people and planet.
Our 3 integrated areas of research are:
1. Youth & the Digital Age 2. Education with/for Youth Wellbeing 3. Youth & Planetary Wellbeing

This site is ever changing as we seek to visualize all that is being done by resourceful, creative, resilient youth in their commitment to support improved and reimagined forms of education and wellbeing of people and planet.
