Young Lives is a longitudinal study of poverty and inequality following 12,000 children into adulthood in Ethiopia, India, Peru and Vietnam since 2001. In May 2024, the team completed an incredible seventh round of data collection. This podcast series goes behind the scenes to explore the innovative methods used to collect the latest data, how the data are being prepared for analysis, and what the findings tell us about the lives of the young people to help shape policies and programmes.
