Regarding the structure of youth work the local surveys have impressively shown that in all European Countries a wide range of youth work is available at local level. In all countries we find extracurricular youth education. In Romania extracurricular youth education is the main type of youth work provided at local level (45%). In Norway extracurricular youth education (28%) is after sports the most common type of youth work activities. Recreation plays an important role in Spain (52%) and Greece (46%), as it represents a high percentage of the activities provided. Open youth work and youth clubs are a institutionalised component of youth work in Austria (38% of the institutions), in Germany (11%)and the Netherlands (12%). Participation plays an highlighted role in the provision of youth work at local level in Germany (45%). In Ireland and Romania there is a formulated need for meeting places especially for rural youngsters. Sports plays an extremely high role in Austria (93% of the institutions provide sports) and the Netherlands (47%), where it is in some municipalities the only accessible form of youth work. Also in Norway (38%) sports can be identified as one of the most common part of youth work provided at local level. The low percentage of sports documented for the other countries has its reason in the fact that sports is managed and financed by other administrative bodies than the youth services. Youth information is with 26% the most frequently provided youth activity in Romania at local level. In all other countries youth information does not represent an great percentage of the youth activities at local level, although it was highlighted in the national statistical reports in Italy, Spain and Greece. International youth work represents 8% of the youth work activities in Greece, in all other countries it is at local level non-existent. Youth employment services are highly represented within the Spanish (20%) youth work system, but are not often monitored at local level in the other countries. In all countries it is possible to identify at least three type of providers: public and non-public and semi-public providers. In the Netherlands for-profit providers play an increasing role in the provision of youth work and in the New Public Management Strategies adopted by the municipalities. In Austria 38% and in Norway 82% of the institutions surveyed claimed to be an voluntary institution, but as most of them are youth associations they can also be classified as non-public institutions. In Germany the percentage of non-public associations providing youth work at local level was identified with 89%. In all countries the municipalities fund with special budgets parts of the youth work provided at local level. In Austria the municipal budget covers 18% of the whole expenses for youth work, in the Netherlands the municipal budget form 15% of the expenses. In Greece the amount provided by the four surveyed municipalities is nearly as high as the budget of the General Secretariat for Youth. In Romania the municipalities contribute 1/3rd of the budget for youth work provided at local level. In Spain it is not possible to make a differentiation between the financing sources but 70% of the budget is provided by public authorities. In Norway it is also not possible to trace the municipal expenses for youth work as there are different sources and no clear distinction between child and youth wo1rk on the one hand and social services and youth work on the other hand. 115
