The IARS online library

Using the library

The IARS online Library is free to use. It contains IARS' key research and policy papers including reports, consultation responses and presentations made by young people at IARS If you have any questions please contact us.

IARS is a charity, and hence we rely on donations and charitable funds to continue our work. To enable us to continue providing our e-publications for free we ask you to kindly consider donating. Even the smallest amount can make a big difference. For example, a donation of £5 can allow us to keep a young person at IARS for a week providing them with training and opportunities to carry out research and inform policy.
