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:
Since the early 2000s, there has been a steadily growing and more positive attitude to youth work. This is largely as a result of efforts made by youth work organisations and providers to gain better recognition. Their advocacy has resulted in a more strategic approach by the European institutions, encouraging governments to value, recognise and support this kind of work through dedicated policies, programmes and resources. This web page briefly explores and explains about these and other elements related to the recognition process.
