Applied Research and Evaluation
Some of the most important questions organizations have about young people and digital life don't have off-the-shelf answers.
Mindful Media offers qualitative and mixed-method research for organizations that want to look more carefully at the questions that matter and do something meaningful with what they find.
Engagements are tailored to organizational goals and can support program design, policy development, evaluation, and strategic planning.
Mindful Media also partners with organizations navigating broader questions related to media, technology, and youth wellbeing — providing strategic consulting, advisory support, and help translating research into resources communities can use.
