Growing Up in Digital Europe Preparation Phase (GUIDEPREP)

在数字欧洲成长预备阶段（GUIDEPREP）项目进一步发展了实施GUIDE出生队列研究所需的研究基础设施（RI）。这项准备工作将在2022年至2025年进行，以使国际研究所为2026年全面试点指南和2027年第一波完整的数据收集做好准备。一旦投入使用，该指南将收集在欧洲成长的儿童的个人数据，直到这些儿童在大约2053年年满24岁。该指南将是欧洲第一个关于儿童和年轻人福祉的比较出生队列研究。该指南研究的目的是跟踪儿童的个人福祉和发展，结合儿童的家庭，社区和学校的关键指标，在整个欧洲。指南将是一项加速队列调查，包括婴儿样本和学龄儿童样本。每个成员国和联系国将提供具有全国代表性的样本，以在整个研究周期内保持统计效力。统一的设计将创建第一个国际可比性，国家代表性，纵向研究的儿童和青年在欧洲。目前，国际研究指南正处于筹备阶段，其中包括建立必要的操作程序和进一步明确研究概念和设计。为了在2026年实现GUIDE的全面试点，并在2027年实现第一波实地工作，RI需要在行政，技术，财务，科学和法律方面进行发展。本指南建议书为这些发展制定了明确的目标，这些发展是在一个由联合体合作伙伴共同参与并由指南领导小组管理的相互关联的活动系统中进行的。

The Growing Up in Digital Europe Preparatory Phase (GUIDEPREP) project further develops the research infrastructure (RI) necessary to implement the GUIDE birth cohort study. This preparatory work will take place across 2022 to 2025 to ready the RI for the fullscale piloting of the GUIDE in 2026 and the first full wave of data collection in 2027. Once operational, GUIDE will collect data about individual children growing up in Europe until those children are aged 24-years in approximately 2053. GUIDE will be Europe’s first comparative birth cohort study of children’s and young people’s wellbeing. The aim of the GUIDE study is to track children’s personal wellbeing and development, in combination with key indicators of children’s homes, neighbourhoods, and schools, across Europe. GUIDE will be an accelerated cohort survey including a sample of infants as well as a sample of school age children. Each Member State and Associated Country will provide nationally representative samples that are designed to retain statistical power throughout the lifetime of the study. The harmonized design will create the first internationally comparable, nationally representative, longitudinal study of children and young people in Europe. Currently the GUIDE RI is in its preparatory phase, which involves the establishment of necessary operational procedures and further crystallisation of the study concept and design. To realise the GUIDE full-scale pilot in 2026 and first wave of fieldwork in 2027, the RI needs to develop administratively, technologically, financially, scientifically, and legally. This GUIDEPREP proposal lays out clear aims for these developments in an interlocking system of activities that are shared across consortium partners and managed by the GUIDE leadership team.
