Originally published as a special issue of theInternational Journal of Qualitative Studies inEducation, this volume explores how researchers, educators, artists, and scholars can collaboratewith, and engage young people in art, creative practice, and research to work towards socialjustice and political engagement. By critically interrogating the dominant discourses, cultural, and structural obstacles that we allface today, this volume explores the potential of critical arts pedagogies and community-basedresearch projects to empower young people as agents of social change. Chapters offer nuancedanalyses of the limits of arts-based social justice collaborations, and grapple with key ethical,practical, and methodological issues that can arise in creative approaches to youth participatoryaction research. Theoretical contributions are enhanced by Notes from the Field, which highlightprime examples of arts-based youth work occurring across North America.As a whole, thevolume powerfully advocates for collaborative creative practices that facilitate young people tobuild power, hope, agency, and skills through creative social engagement. This volume will be of interest to scholars, researchers, postgraduate students, andscholar-practitioners involved in community- and arts-based research and education, as well asthose working with marginalized youth to improve their opportunities and access to a qualityeducation and to deepen their political participation and engagement inintergenerationalpartnerships aiming to increase the conditions for social justice.
