Summary
The Youth Endowment Fund (YEF) is seeking a team (or individual) to conduct a qualitative research project with young people who are receiving, or have received, support or intervention for violence against women and girls (VAWG) and gender-based violence-related behaviours or concerns.
This project will hear directly from young people aged 16 to 21 about the support they received, what helped, what made things worse, and what a good response would look like.
This is an opportunity to design a study with young people, ensuring their voices shape the design, tools and how findings are interpreted. We are looking for a team that can do this safely and ethically.
Project Goals
The study will inform YEF’s Practice and System Guidance for key sectors, including children’s services, youth justice, policing and education, on how to reduce VAWG amongst children and young people.
How to apply
Proposals should be no longer than 2,500 words and should set out the team’s expertise, experience, methodological approach, and budget. You may attach relevant documents to support your application – these will not be included in the word count.
Applicants should submit a proposal by 9am, 14th September to youthvoice@youthendowmentfund.org.uk. Questions are welcome and to be submitted by 9th September.
Further information on the project, and how to apply, can be found in the Call for Proposals:
