Research activities
The Partnership's commitment to furthering youth research and constructing links with policy and practice includes a programme of youth research seminars.
Such events promote dialogue among youth researchers and between them and young people, youth organisations, policy makers and practitioners, in relation to themes of relevance to young people in Europe identified as key by the European Commission, the Council of Europe, European Youth Forum, various youth research actors and other relevant representatives of the youth field.
Discussions in those events lead to formulating conclusions and recommendations for future reflection and youth research, policy and practice actions. For further information contact EU-CoE youth partnership Secretariat.
