Study Title
The Intersectional Effects of Disability and Social Class on Becoming NEET
Department
Department of Sociology at the University of Warwick
The study focuses on disabled young people who are not currently in employment, education, or training (also known as NEET). We are interested in better understanding the role that disability and social disadvantage have on young people’s educational and employment experiences. In order to achieve this, we will interview approximately 20 disabled and/or neurodivergent young people (aged 18-30) from across England and Wales, who are from socially disadvantaged backgrounds and are not currently in employment, education, or training. This project’s overarching aim is to produce evidence that can be used to understand and address educational and occupational inequalities faced by disabled young people.
Every participant will be given a £20 'Love to Shop' voucher.
