Research on Youth

The EU-CoE youth partnership organises various activities (thematic research seminars, expert workshops, European Network of Experts on Youth Knowledge)with a view to enhancing evidence-based youth policy and practice and by encouraging ongoing discussion among people involved in youth work, policy-makers and researchers. On this page you will find studies or reports produced/funded by partners and other institutions on key themes of relevance to young people in Europe, as defined by the Council of Europe and/or the European Commission.
