10 Bridges for Recognition | What is Bridges for Recognition? - Introduction<br />

Participants<br />

Participants in the conference came from all over Europe and represented a variety of stakeholders<br />

in the youth work recognition debate. The participant list of 120 people included:<br />

youth workers, NGO representatives & youth (work) trainers,<br />

labour market representatives,<br />

academics from the formal-education sector & vocational trainers,<br />

National Agency staff and National Coordinators of the European YOUTH programme,<br />

(European) policy makers and representatives of local and national authorities and …<br />

even a few people who could still be classed as “young”…<br />

The wealth of experience, understanding and commitment to the development of young people<br />

as individuals and as citizens was enormous, as well as the drive to improve the recognition of<br />

youth work in society.<br />

Sixteen workshops providing case studies of good practice from across Europe; seven stakeholder<br />

groups with different needs; and six “hot issues” interest groups, together created a framework<br />

for all these people to build bridges and to gather resources for further cooperation and<br />

collaboration and to make recognition of youth work a reality.<br />
