Next Steps at 32: Explore the new data

The Next Steps age 32 data release includes information collected from more than 7,200 study participants. It provides valuable up-to-date insights into many aspects of their lives, including their experiences of a pandemic and cost-of-living crisis.

This webinar will give attendees an excellent introduction to the new data, the wide range of questions they can help answer, and the opportunities for longitudinal research using the data captured over time. A comprehensive Q&A will follow the presentation.

This event will be particularly useful for researchers, especially early career researchers.
