which of these activities should be considered as the most important of the activities offered by this provider. There are also some problems regarding the availability of data about youth work activities. In some cases officials admit that they have no data about some youth work activities, and in other cases it is obvious that the zeros in table 2 refer more likely to the fact that there is no data available about some youth work activity and not so much to the possibility that these youth work activities are not offered in the municipality.

There is currently a study being conducted about the budgets of youth work providers in the youth service of the Tartu city council, so that there should soon be quite detailed information available at least for Tartu. The data available about youth workers is rather superficial. It is possible to obtain the total number of youth workers in the four municipalities selected. It must be noted, however, that in the three larger municipalities (Narva, Pärnu, Tartu) only the number of youth workers and teachers in the hobby schools and hobby centres are reported, so that the actual total number of youth workers is probably a little higher. More detailed data is available only for the municipality of Kuusalu, where we obtained the number of youth workers working full-time and part-time (see table 25), the ratio of youth workers working in public and non-public organisations (5/3), the ratio of male and female youth workers (3/5) and the number of youth workers with higher education (4) or with professional school education (1). 74
Table 25: Youth workers in Estonian municipalities Kuusalu Narva Pärnu Tartu Total employees 8 218 291 201 Full-time 3 No data No data No data Part-time 2 No data No data No data The information available about the participants in the four selected municipalities is rather scarce. For the three larger municipalities (Narva, Pärnu, Tartu) we know the total number of participants, while in Kuusalu there is no information at all about participants. At the same time it is important to consider that the “total” number of participants in Narva, Pärnu and Tartu actually means the total number of participants in hobby schools and hobby centres. In all these municipalities, the number of young people participating in some other kind of activities (open youth work, youth counselling, youth recreation etc.) is not available and therefore not included in the so-called total number of participants. Table 26: Participants in youth work in Estonian municipalities Comments: Kuusalu Narva Pärnu Tartu Total No data 2569 100% 5564 1739 Girls No data 1674 65% No data No data Boys No data 895 35% No data No data Differences between national and local level: As at national level, it was not possible to track all youth work providers at local level. We therfor have no basis for commenting the additional data. 10.3 Germany In Germany the municipalities selected and surveyed were: � Lübeck, a city situated in the north of Germany, with 70,000 inhabitants; � Jork, a municipality located in the administrative district of Stade, with 12,000 inhabitants; � Lingen, a municipality with nearly 56,000 inhabitants in the north-west of Germany and a centre for the petrochemical industry in Germany; and � Ilm-Kreis, a rural district with 112,000 inhabitants. Although all municipalities have to participate in the annual national youth services statistics, it was striking that data was not accessible easily. The national statistics are collected by means of questionnaires in paper form. These questionnaires are delivered to the statistic 75
