This multidisciplinary approach addresses the growing demand for researchers with comprehensive insights into children's lives both in Ireland and internationally.
Throughout the four-year duration, participants will benefit from guidance by leading scholars in Children's Studies while refining their research concepts and advancing their methodological capabilities.
