My study is a sub-study of the Resilient Youth in Stressed Environments (RYSE) Project (ethics clearance, UP17/05/01). RYSE aims to better understand the resilience of youth who live in environments that are stressed by the petrochemical industry and its associated risks. Hope is a pathway of resilience. In particular, the purpose of my study was to explore over time which barriers to the experience of hope are identified by youths who live in a resource-constrained community. My qualitative study followed a phenomenological research design that used a Draw-and-Tell activity to generate data. In 2017, the RYSE participants generated data that explored barriers to hope. I repeated this process in my study in 2018 to investigate changes over time. I used inductive thematic analysis to analyse the 2018 data and deductive thematic analysis to make sense of the 2017 data. The following themes emerged from this analysis: negative social experiences, lack of resources to pursue dreams and gender norms limiting future selves. These themes, which were consistent over time, allowed for a rich understanding of the barriers to hope as identified by adolescents in a resource constrained context. The understanding of these barriers to hope has implications for educational psychologists who aim to develop preventative interventions to foster adolescent hope and resilience. es2026 Educational Psychology MEd Unrestricted SDG-03: Good health and well-being SDG-05: Gender equality SDG-10: Reduced inequalities 2022-10-25T10:18:14Z 2022-10-25T10:18:14Z 2021 2020 Dissertation * A2021 https://repository.up.ac.za/handle/2263/87953 © 2022 University of Pretoria.
