Abstract
This document summarises a year-long project to identify gaps and priorities in child poverty research in Scotland. The findings are intended to inform a research agenda on child poverty leading up to the Scottish Government’s next child poverty action plan in 2026.
During the project, we spoke to a number of people including child poverty researchers; people with lived experience of poverty and of poverty research; decision-makers; and the media. We collected insights into what research is needed moving forward, and how such research should be conducted. We also heard recommendations on how to translate evidence into policy or public understanding of an issue.
