Different World
print-friendly versionHow Young people can work together on human rights, citizenship, equality and creating a better society
Contrary to the general view, events in their local communities and internationally are of concern to young people, according to this new City Parochial Foundation report from Lemos&Crane
Different World also reveals that while national politics do not interest them as much, young people are prepared to do something about their concerns.
The report calls for a new consensus on the content and purpose of youth work to be based on citizenship, social change and the creation of a better world.
Youth work practitioners need to be more creative in working with young people, making more use of positive peer-influence, the arts and sport, commercial marketing methods, and new media communications such as texting and blogging, the report also suggests.
