A practical research research workshop that invites delegates to practically explore and contribute to ongoing research being conducted by Kelly Freebody & Michael Anderson from The University of Sydney (Australia) on behalf of ASSITEJ International. The research will be advocacy-focused and beneficial to ASSITEJ members, ASSITEJ National Centres, Professional Networks, TYA practitioners, and the wider TYA community. The research outputs will be published on an open-access basis. The research is intended to be of reference for practitioners in their day-to-day working lives to, for example, boost advocacy initiatives and funding applications, offer learning opportunities, and foster networking and collaboration. Specifcially, the researchers are working to collate evidence on the value of TYA that curates and synthesises the existing research from across the field. The primary focus is on knowledge synthesis - collecting, curating, and signposting to pre-existing published literature, as well as grey (unpublished) literature, that qualifies and quantifies claims on the value of theatre and performing arts for children.
