How WYDE Civic Engagement produces youth-led research

The Youth Democracy Cohort advances research on youth political participation through scoping studies and case studies, the Young Researchers’ Network, and the Global Index on Youth Political Participation:

Case studies on Youth Political Participation

This page brings together all the research content produced as part of the WYDE Civic Engagement project: scoping studies on Youth Political Participation and case countries extracted from it and the case studies to be produced by the Young Researchers’ Network in the near future.

Young Researchers Network

The Young Researchers’ Network empowers young scholars to lead research on youth political participation, ensuring their perspectives shape democratic debates. Bringing together 12 selected researchers for a three-year programme, the network fosters cross-regional exchanges with experts and policymakers.

Index on YPP

The Global Index on Youth Political Participation aims to fill critical gaps in global data on youth political participation by fostering youth-led research that highlights positive engagement practices, challenges systemic barriers, and amplifies young voices in the democratic process.
