SPARKCATCHER RESEARCH

Walking on our path, following the breadcrumbs of the many opinions of youth workers who work with youngsters with fewer opportunities and the youngsters themselves, we have come to many different conclusions.

This is an area that hasn’t been deeply researched, or at least not from this perspective. Therefore, we have run into very partial data, often based on opinions of the expert youth workers who are working in the field. In our research, local partner organizations have helped us, local experts that are working in the field,
