The Youth Partnership collects, analyses and develops knowledge, data and information about young people, to better understand current and upcoming challenges and trends in their lives, and their implications and relevance for youth policy and youth work.

It organises seminars, workshops, symposia and knowledge forums where research informs the sector, stimulates dialogue and contributes to better youth policy and practice.

What is youth research? What is the purpose, scope and usefulness of research on youth? How can various stakeholders make use of it? The ​​​​​​​booklet Youth research: the essentials aims to answer these questions and give an overview of the main concept and challenges.
