Back Seminar 'The role of research in youth policy and youth work development in the broader Euro-Mediterranean context', November 2006, Egypt

27-30 November 2006, Cairo (Egypt)

This seminar provided an opportunity for youth researchers, youth workers and governmental representatives to reflect together on the particular role of research in the development of youth policy in order to develop an exchange process, co-operation and joint activities between the fields of youth research, youth work and youth policy development.

This seminar is a result of co-operation between the EU-CoE youth partnership, the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, the Council of Europe's Directorate of Youth and Sport, the Egyptian National Youth Council, the League of Arab States, the Swedish Institute in Alexandria and the Swedish National Board of Youth affairs.

It was intended for participants involved in youth research, youth work and youth policy development, more specifically those falling into one of three categories: youth researchers, youth workers/youth NGO representatives and government representatives/civil servants.
