Europe faces a pressing need to build more inclusive and youth-friendly societies. Developing more knowledge and innovations on how to enhance youth social participation, employment and social belonging should include young people themselves. Youth citizen social science (Y-CSS) is the approach through which the research team behind the YouCount project, aims to address this complex challenge.
However, Y-CSS poses in itself important challenges that we need to reflect on, as our project gathers pace. For that reason, we are organising 3 webinars this autumn to share what we have learned so far, how we are planning to proceed, and listen to your views and suggestions. We also want to start building a community of interest around Y-CSS. Participation is open to everybody (whether you have experience in this field of work or if you're interested to learn about it) and it is free of charge.
Please be warmly invited to participate and don't forget to save the following dates:
- Inclusive co-creation in Y-CSS: How to integrate young people in research & innovation? (Friday 24th September 2021, 13:00-15:00 CEST)
- Methodologies & evaluation for Y-CSS: How to make our engagement count? (Thursday 21st October 2021, 13:00-15:00 CEST)
- Transformative & Innovative impact of Y-CSS: How to make social change? (Friday 5th November 2021, 13:00-15:00 CEST)
The YouCount project is funded by the EC under GA No.101005931. The EIE working group is a voluntary and self-organised format for exchange by practitioners of Citizen Science and Community-Based Research.
