About, What we do
The unit focuses its work in several areas, but significantly, it works across the youth work sector in partnership with a wide range of youth work organisations. We recognise and value the diversity and interdependence of the youth sector and respect the range of approaches used in the personal and social development of young people.
In summary the unit works with youth service partners to:
- Raise awareness of “Youth Work – a model for effective practice” (.pdf)
- Develop and share resources
- Explore models of youth work practice
- Share examples of youth work practice
