The internal advisory group (IAG) consists of practitioners from Northern Ireland who have an interest in evidence-based services for children and young people. They come from a range of backgrounds, including statutory, voluntary and uniformed youth services, as well as educational welfare.  The IAG provides support to the research centre, providing critical feedback on decisions, projects, and outputs.
