increased participation and citizenship of youth workers and project leaders in their organisations

Mitsprache und Mitgestaltung

A considerable indirect effect of the participation of youth workers and youth leaders on participation and citizenship in their organisations and groups is also suggested. Project leaders (for all activity types) were also asked this question. Their responses show higher values for competence development than participants in YWM and TCA, which can be explained by the direct involvement also of project participants from their organisation – so it is a direct effect.

Evaluierung der Aktivität

In principle, the research on the programme and its activities envisages a combination of quantitative and qualitative social research methods and instruments, in particular surveys with project participants, project leaders and staff of beneficiary organisations as well as qualitative interviews and focus groups with different actors involved in Erasmus+/Youth in Action (E+/YiA). Surveys and interviews can also involve young people, youth leaders and youth workers not participating in the programme and thus acting as control groups. This research project aims to explore a broad scope of aspects of E+/YiA in order to contribute to practice development, to improving the implementation of E+/YiA and to the development of the next programme generation. It is a further development of the Research-based Analysis and Monitoring of Youth in Action, the main activity of the RAY Network between 2009 and 2013.
Increased participation of young people in their organisation/group; increased appreciation of cultural diversity; increased commitment to include young people with fewer opportunities; more intensive involvement in European issues.
