Summary This case presents an analysis of the main methodological issues underlying the research presented in an article on citizenship education published in the journal Theory and Research in Education. The study shows that meaningful citizenship education, particularly with vulnerable, at-risk children and young people, transcends formal identification with a country or nation via the flag, or national anthem, since it is also based on such factors as having skills and opportunities to share personal stories and events with one another, and, consequently, to support each other's growth. The case study aims to give the cohort of study participants a voice in describing reality as they see, understand and live it
