Special interest research group on youth mental health and racism

The Anna Freud Centre, in partnership with CORC and colleagues from the University of Nottingham and the University of Oxford, has launched a special interest research group focusing on youth mental health and racism. This research group has been set up with support from Emerging Minds.

The research group aims to support research that improves our understanding of the impact of racism on young people’s mental health. Our goal is to bring together young people, community organisations, researchers and policymakers to foster research in the area, improve our understanding and create change for young people.

We are particularly keen to involve young people in the group, and to ensure their voices have an impact on the research being conducted.

Get in touch

We are keen to hear from you about specific areas you would like to hear about in relation to racism and its impact on youth mental health. Please do get in touch at CORC@annafreud.org to share your ideas, learn more about the research network or to get involved. This research group is chaired by Zonke Zungu from the University of Nottingham and Dr Julian Edbrooke-Childs from the Anna Freud Centre/CORC.
