Recognition resources
In this section, you will find publications, web resources and events all connected directly or indirectly to the recognition of youth work. The list is not seen as being complete and it is acknowledged that the reader will see some as not relevant and would like to see others included. It is intended that this resources page should be updated regularly. The section paints a large picture of the recognition work that has and is being conducted across Europe.
Each resource is hyperlinked through its title and comes with a short summary. It is recommended that you use the tags to search for a particular theme or topic rather than scrolling through the long list of documents.

Summary link to Recognition:
As part of the European Training Strategy the Competence model for youth workers was launched in 2016. Its intention is to provide networking and cooperation possibilities on an international level for youth workers which will in turn support young people in learning mobility projects. The Competence model provides a set of identified competences for youth workers in order to assist in this process. Providers of non-formal learning, training and education, as well as the Erasmus+ Youth programme are paying closer attention to these competences. Identifying and describing youth worker competences better helps improve the image and recognition of youth workers and therefore youth work in society.
