Young Lives, the unique 15-year longitudinal study of 12,000 children in Ethiopia, India, Peru and Vietnam, released the data from Round 3 of its childhood poverty survey on 19 September.
The third round of this data will enable researchers to map changes in children's lives over an 8-year period, and to compare what is happening to the Younger Cohort (now age 8) with the Older Cohort who were that age in Round 1.
Household, child and community data is available on a wealth of variables, including the children's material and social circumstances, set against the environmental and social realities of their communities.
The household and child data from Round 3 (2009) and the community data from Round 1 (2002) and Round 2 (2006) were released on 19 September. Panel data will be released later this year. A methods guide and data visualisation tools will also be available on the Young Lives site (www.younglives.org.uk).
Alongside the data release, a series of Round 3 launch events is planned. Young Lives convened a panel on Education in Challenging Circumstances at the UKFIET conference in Oxford (13-15 September), to be followed this week by another on Growing Up in an Age of Uncertainty at EADI DSA (19-22 September) in York. There will also be two international launch events, the first in The Hague at the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs (DGIS) on 26 September and the second at the Department for International Development (DFID) in London on 27 September.
