The £1 billion a year annual decline in funding for youth services over the last decade has made it difficult to access support in many areas. We are calling on national government to create a long-term plan to ensure all young people have access to the youth work provision they need where they live. Our Manifesto 2024 outlines long term plans to address this and empower young people through youth work:  nya.org.uk/manifesto2024 https://lnkd.in/e7qEm9ks

The limitless potential of youth is the driving force behind tomorrow's success! May it inspire new success stories, drive positive change, and spin a brighter future for the world! #Jumac #JumacCans #HappyYouthDay #YouthDay #InternationalYouthDay #YouthDay2024

Insights on Youth Involvement from Germany and the Netherlands! Germany's JUGEND für Europa and the Netherlands' Erasmus+ Jeugd & European Solidarity Corps are leading examples of effective youth participation. Their strategies emphasise real engagement over tokenism and showcase how proper communication can significantly increase youth involvement. 🇩🇪 In Germany, the focus is on creating an inclusive environment where young people's contributions shape programmes. 🇳🇱 In the Netherlands, the focus is on highlighting the importance of outreach and communication in engaging youth. These efforts, alongside a detailed report on youth participation in decision-making, offer valuable lessons for organizations looking to enhance youth involvement.

Globally, progress towards youth development is steady. The youth are especially least developed in Political and Civic Participation. (Commonwealth Secretariat, 2022). As yesterday marked the celebration of International Youth Day, all well-meaning individuals and organizations are charged with a duty to promote the development of young people’s health, well-being, education, security, employment, and education. Looking beyond the challenges young people face, let us see opportunities that can transform the youth to contribute towards a thriving society. The call is to #do #something #transformational for young people.

In our newest article Lucas Steinbach and I demonstrate that while youth continue to experience difficulties in overtaking meaningful roles as actors of change in peacebuilding, there is an improvement in the acceptance of their agency. The article explores the case of Sierra Leone where the perception of youth can be seen as a massive change from immediately after the war to today. The article explores different roles that youth can have during and after a conflict, investigates positive impacts youth can have, describes what peace means for young people and how they would describe a desirable future, and finally speaks about how youth respond and interact with international ideas of peace and sustainability. The article is open acces! #youthinpeace #youth
