increased motivation of young people for engagement as a result of the youth work relationship

gesellschaftliche Partizipation

Flexibility is another valued element of the youth workers’ person-centred, approach. Youth workers often operate at times and on terms that make them more approachable than many other professionals in their lives – providing more motivation to engage. This particularly applied to street-based youth work and different forms of project work.

Evaluierung der Aktivität

The findings summarised below have been derived from evidence from five main strands: (1) A documentary review of fifty local services (one third of services in England); (2) An analysis of available numerical data about youth services based primarily on the annual audit conducted by the National Youth Agency; (3) Reviews of fifteen selected local services that have explored aspects of provision and impact, including the ways in which they are influenced by the leadership and management of local services. These reviews have drawn on the testimony of young people, youth workers, youth service managers and partners derived from semi-structured interviews and group discussions; (4) Thirty case studies of practice, each located in one of the fifteen services selected for review; (5) A self-administered survey conducted among 630 young people who use local youth services in the review areas.
