Amplify Youth

Research & Evidence

Amplify Youth documents its program model, accessible approaches, project learning and outcomes so that the work can be reviewed, evaluated and developed over time.

What do we mean by evidence?

This page brings together published project records, evaluation information and evidence collected through Amplify Youth activities.

These are different kinds of evidence. A published project framework is not the same thing as independent peer-reviewed research, and project evaluation is not the same thing as an academic study.

We identify these different evidence types clearly so that readers can understand what each source can support.

How We Build Project Evidence

Amplify Youth uses several forms of evidence rather than relying on one measure alone.

01

Participation

Attendance and participation records help show who the project reached and how people engaged.

02

Delivery

Workshop records document what was delivered, accessibility supports provided and how activities were implemented.

03

Participant Outputs

Creative outputs can provide practical evidence of participation, skill development and project activity.

04

Feedback

Participant, facilitator and partner feedback provides qualitative information about experience and delivery.

05

Accessible Practice

The project records accessibility supports and participation approaches used during delivery.

06

Reporting

Project summaries and acquittal records bring delivery, expenditure and outcomes together for reporting.

Evaluation Approach

Evaluation is designed to be practical, accessible and proportionate to a community-based youth media project.

  • Attendance records
  • Workshop delivery records
  • Participant output tracking
  • Accessibility supports provided
  • Facilitator observations
  • Participant feedback
  • Partner feedback
  • Consented photos or media evidence
  • Partner and supplier records
  • Final project and acquittal notes
Low-burden evaluation matters.

Evidence collection should support accountability and learning without making participation unnecessarily difficult or turning a creative youth program into a research exercise.

Evidence Created Through the Project

Amplify Youth can create reusable evidence and resources as part of delivery.

  • Accessible participant information
  • Consent templates
  • Evaluation tools
  • Workshop structures and delivery records
  • Captioning and media workflow templates
  • Participant-approved creative outputs
  • Accessible or captioned project information
  • Project summaries and evidence packs
