There is a constant flow of new information relevant to youth work. Youth work is high on the political agenda and new research projects are being launched, new expert groups are being established and new policy documents are being adopted. A lot of interesting developments are also going on on local level and through cooperation within EGL. Very much of this is highly beneficial to local youth work and can bring added value when developing the quality of both policy and practice. Being updated helps youth work to be both knowledge based and relevant. You will find much useful information in the change makers kit library, and one way of keeping yourselves updated is to subscribe to the change makers kit newsletter!
