How might networks center the experiences of youth in the improvement process by cultivating relationships with students that are meaningful and not transactional? Learn about Eskolta’s Youth Advisory Board, rooted in principles of youth participatory action research, in which students from alternative high schools in our Eskolta Network advise on organizational strategy and engage in their own continuous improvement work. Participants will then reflect on their approach to youth engagement against Eskolta’s Continuum of Student Voice, a research-based framework for incorporating student agency in the improvement process.
