Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR): increasing evidence use and policy impact through an online data dashboard
Brian Villa et al.
What the paper says
The dashboard is one method designed to strengthen the use and impact of youth-generated evidence from YPAR. Implementation challenges that arose during the development phase required us to strategise about responsibly and effectively disseminating YPAR evidence. As of December 2025, we have moved into a beta testing phase for the dashboard. A forthcoming public launch will bring new insights to district leaders in San Francisco, with potential replication across the state and beyond.
