The Research Collaborative on Youth Activism is an interdisciplinary network of researchers who study and work collaboratively with young people in their schools and communities. Housed at San Francisco State University’s César E Chavez Institute, the purpose of the Research Collaborative on Youth Activism is to create a learning community of researchers who are engaged in research about youth activism. The intent of the collaborative is to organize information and facilitate the dissemination of relevant research findings to policy makers, practitioners and researchers in order to increase support for youth activism and social change activities.
