Here, the focus is on the health/well-being and vulnerability (violence) of children and young people through interventions aimed at children and young people, as well as how children and young people make sense of such processes in their everyday lives and thereby shape their own lives and conditions, as well as their own participation and identity work.
In this area, children and young people are studied in different cultural, social, and spatial contexts such as family, preschool, school, after-school programs, association life, and other institutional contexts. Children and young people are thus studied both as actors with the ability to influence and as dependent on the structures and contexts they are in.
