Their Future is Our Future - Youth as Actors of Change

Several projects have been funded under FP7-Theme 8 “Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH)” and H2020-Societal Challenge 6 “Europe in a changing world: inclusive, innovative and reflective societies (IIRS)”, addressing the current situation facing young people.

These projects have assessed the capabilities, prospects, attitudes and needs of the young generation through the multidisciplinary lens of economic, social and individual perspectives. In doing so, they have paid special attention to capturing the full diversity of young people in Europe.

This publication gives an overview of the most relevant projects on youth and youth-related policies, which aims to ensure the full participation of youth in an innovative, inclusive, sustainable and democratic Europe. Thus, they provide solid suggestions as to how EU and national policies can most adequately address the challenges faced by young people today, and how to set the EU on a course for a better future.
