Subtitle: Your guide to quality development
Author(s): KEKS. DSP. ‘s-Hertogenbosch
Date: 2017
Summary link to Recognition:
This handbook was developed in order to provide the youth work sector with an easily accessible and concrete model for continuous, systematic and knowledge-based quality development as well as enhanced credibility and recognition of youth work. The handbook was also produced as a response to two main factors. Firstly because of the increased interest at the political level about youth work – this being in relation to the economic crisis, rise in youth unemployment and marginalisation of young people, and secondly because of an ever increasing demand for evidence that proves that youth work effectively responds to these needs. It was felt that the handbook could be used as a resource in order to support the recognition of youth work.
