The young people who joined in with the ‘What about us?’ project did action research. This meant they worked together to:
- find out what could be better
- make plans for improvements
- make new things happen
- watch and listen for any changes
- think about what happened and discuss what to do next
- change their plans to make new things happen
- tell people about their work.
