Abstract

Background: This project is part of the wider Serious Violence Research Programme jointly led by the Youth Endowment Fund and the Department for Education. The Serious Violence Research Programme aims to establish the evidence base to inform strategies to tackle serious youth violence. The project commissioned the Systems Evidence and Gap Map (2022; Systems Evidence and Gap Map | Youth Endowment Fund) which was the first step towards establishing this evidence base. The Evidence and Gap Map aimed to identify and map the literature about how systems of support in the UK and Ireland protect or expose children and young people to involvement in serious youth violence. It establishes the size and scope of the evidence base but doesn’t tell us what the evidence says. The next step was to synthesise this evidence to understand how children and young people interact with systems of support and identify areas for further research– this is the focus of the current report.
