THRIVE Repository
The THRIVE Repository is a curated collection of Canadian research exploring youth and their lived realities.
It brings together peer-reviewed research, grey literature, policy reports, community-based research, and Indigenous knowledge contributions focused on children, adolescents, teenagers, preteens, and young and emerging adults.
The Repository examines the conditions that shape youth adversity, resilience, safety, and belonging, with particular attention to intersectional violence, gender-based violence, masculinities, structural inequities, colonial legacies, systemic racism, migration, access to services, and the broader systems influencing young people’s lives.
This dataset is a living snapshot of existing knowledge. It reflects sources identified through the project’s baseline collection process and will continue to grow as new research and knowledge contributions are identified.
Please note that some academic sources may require an institutional login or subscription to access the full content.
