Table 20: Youth work in Spain 66 Data base Institutions Activities Funds Youth workers Volunteers Participants Spain Association Census of the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy Spanish Youth Council Associations Census Data from the National Employment Institute Injuve Report on Youth Information Services 2006 146 subsidised youth associations in 2006 45 Promotion and Development Units for job insertion and 159 learning centres in 2005 3000 youth information services 9.3 Comparative overview No data about all youth work activities INEM governmental programme for job insertion and training: 873 training workshops; 159 learning centres; 1,423 employment workshops The Interdepartmental Youth Plan (2005- 2008) allocates € 2,341,000 for different actions related to youth work (52% for training and 39% for employment and housing). In 2006 the 146 youth associations were subsidised with €2,957,570. The INEM programme budget amounts to €494,910. €520 million has been allocated for the `Youth in Action` programme from 2000 till 2006. 14,060 educational directors and support personnel carrying out the job insertion and training workshops of the INEM Programme. 50% of the youth education centres have one single worker, 23% have two, 13% have four or more and 8% three workers. 31% of the personnel in the YIS are temporary workers, 21% have full-time contracts, 16% are civil servants usually in urban or surrounding areas. 31% of the professionals in the YIS have a 4-year higher education degree, 29% a 3-year higher education degree, 20% secondary school education, 3% elementary school education and 18% have other education levels. 1/3 of the YIS collaborate with volunteer workers. 4% of YIS staff are volunteers. In 2005 there were 60,837 young people in the INEM programme. Because the data is not complete, the results of the present study do not allow for a comprehensive comparison of youth work in the various countries of the study. Any attempt in this direction would lead to distortions. The following can be said of the data on youth activities: � the best documented sectors are those of publicly supported youth work and of activities implemented by public providers � because participation in the investigations was on a voluntary basis, only partial sectors could be documented, even in the case of publicly funded measures (Austria, the Netherlands);
� in southern European countries (Greece, Italy, Spain), only data gathered at European level on youth information and on the implementation of the ‘Youth in Action’ programme was documented at national level; and � the structures and services provided by youth associations are not sufficiently visible (Germany, Estonia, Ireland, Norway). In some countries, however, the share of youth work provided by non-public associations can be documented. In summary, the following can be said about the data on the money and time invested in youth activities: � in nearly all the countries surveyed, only amounts provided by the ministries responsible for youth affairs or by European institutions were identifiable; � the budgets contributed by other sources – e.g. employment and social affairs, health or sport – were not available for the present study; � in none of the countries surveyed, with the exception of Germany, was there any information available at national level on funds invested at state or local level; � the time and money invested by youth organisations and other non-public associations cannot be documented. The following can be said regarding data on the number of people employed: � some countries (Greece, Italy, Norway) have no aggregated data on youth workers at national level; � the only well documented figure is the number of youth workers employed in public institution and paid with public funds; � information is available on the qualifications of youth workers and their employment relationships in those cases where basic data is collected on numbers of youth workers; � the number of youth work volunteers cannot be directly documented in any of the countries of the survey. If information is available at all, it concerns data derived from studies on volunteer work and data on the ratio between paid and unpaid youth workers. The following can be said with regard to the young people participating in youth work activities: � data on participants in institutional activities is available for only a few of the countries surveyed (Estonia, Germany, Romania); 67
