ABSTRACT
The decisions behind what kind of data to report and what data to put aside is a central concern in research with youth, particularly in the data collected from youth who are migrants, witnesses of violent crime, homeless, LGBTQ identified, or trafficked. If data reporting protocols can be developed in ways that help see or perceive how power moves in these instances of oppression, perhaps research can acknowledge the complexity of youth narratives, worlds and relations, and recognize the multiplicity or heterogeneity of youth lives.
