Research

Research in the field of international youth work can inform policy makers and practitioners about what works, what sounds promising and what does not work. It can generate knowledge about international mobility programmes and their impacts that can guide youth policy makers and practitioners. The value of this knowledge is to contribute to the improvement and conceptual development of the field of work, with the aim of strengthening the personal development of young people. Communicating research results is a crucial task to achieve this goal.

With its services, IJAB is contributing to making current developments and research results relevant to the field of international youth work visible.
