Research “Youth Leadership in Crises”

The research ′′Youth Leadership in Crises′′ aims to understand the challenges and opportunities faced by young leaders in order to support them and strengthen their role in effectively addressing crisis situations.

We researched the state and needs of young people and youth workers by conducting in-depth interviews and online surveys. We spoke with young people about their values, identity transformation, mental health, hopes for the future, feelings about European integration, and willingness to be an active part of society. The research is based on detailed answers from people from different social groups. Such an approach makes visible the diverse experiences of the younger generation.

The project is implemented by the NGOs ′′STAN′′ and ′′Girls′′ in cooperation with and with the financial support of the Czech humanitarian organization ′′People in Need′′. This research was co-funded by the Swedish Institute as part of the ′′Brave Space′′ project implemented by the NGO ′′Fryshuset′′ in cooperation with the NGOs ′′STAN′′ and ′′Armenian Progressive Youth′′. The views expressed in this material should not be taken as reflecting the official position of the NGO ′′People in Need′′, the NGO ′′Fryshuset′′ and the Swedish Institute.
