Conclusion: Reflecting on theory and method, practice and policy. 330 $aThis book explores the daily mobilities and immobilities of children and young people in sub-Saharan Africa. The authors draw on findings from rural and urban field research extending over many years, culminating in a 24-site study across three African countries: Ghana, Malawi, and South Africa. Wider reflections on gender, relationality, the politics of mobility, and field methodology frame the study. By bringing together diverse strands of a complex daily mobilities picture-from journeys for education, work, play/leisure and health, to associated experiences of different transport modes, road safety, and the virtual mobility now afforded by mobile phones-the book helps fill a knowledge gap with crucial significance for development policy and practice. 410 0$aAnthropology, Change, and Development,$x2947-6976 606 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government 606 $aEthnology$zAfrica 606 $aCulture 606 $aFamily policy 606 $aSociology 606 $aSocial groups 606 $aAfrican Politics 606 $aAfrican Culture 606 $aChildren, Youth and Family Policy 606 $aSociology of Family, Youth and Aging 615 0$aAfrica$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aFamily policy. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aSocial groups. 615 14$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aAfrican Culture. 615 24$aChildren, Youth and Family Policy. 615 24$aSociology of Family, Youth and Aging. 676 $a320.96 700 $aPorter$b Gina$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0987275 702 $aHampshire$b Kate$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aAbane$b Albert$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aMunthali$b Alister$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aRobson$b Elsbeth$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aMashiri$b Mac$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154820603321 996 $aYoung People?s Daily Mobilities in Sub-Saharan Africa$92256466 997 $aUNINA
