Dilemmas:
How do social structures and institutions favor and/or obstruct young people’s influence?
What strategies could help young people have more influence on social development-individually, as well as collectively?
What are the indicators allowing to measure young people’s influence on social change?
How does young people’s action or inaction alter the landscape of knowledge, work, leisure, community and power?
KEY RESULTS ACHIEVED IN 2004
A large number of young people including minorities actively participating in designing, implementing and monitoring of the DoY projects and activities.
The Law on Youth Empowerment and Participation finalized with input from young people is with the Prime Ministers office ready for the Parliament.
School-to-work transition survey with ILO (To understand the process of transition of young people from school to work. So that Youth Employment Policies can be developed and initiated to improve the transition process where needed).
LESSONS LEARNED 2000-05
Introduction of new concepts such as Youth Employment Services and Life Skills Based Education requires more efforts and longer period of time to be accepted by stakeholders.
Sustainability of the youth projects requires assistance for a longer period of time and exit strategies for the government to take over.
Activities that are related to behaviour change of young people are more difficult to measure and need more time to show results.
Capacities of youth NGOs need to be continuously strengthened.
CHALLENGES
Despite the large number of young people and high unemployment, the investment in the youth sector remains very low.
March violent events in Kosovo have strongly hindered the small progress that was achieved in the previous years especially affecting the youth perspectives
Lack of NGOs with good expertise and experience in delivering qualitative services, especially in working with vulnerable groups and doing outreach work.
OPPORTUNITIES
Young people present a challenge but, even more, they present an opportunity.
Working with, and strengthening the networking of groups of positive-thinking young people so that they can make their voices heard, is an opportunity that needs to be fully exploited.
They are modern and forward-looking and have a clearer idea than their elders of what can be possible in an educated, informed and democratic society
- Social Bomb
- Development potential
DoY CONCERNS
High youth unemployment and over-representation of young people in marginalized groups
Low social networking, support systems and services
Increasing inequalities of educational opportunity
Insecurity, increasing violence and destruction of the environment
