Seminar / Conference

The conference will present the research findings of the RAY network for an informed discourse on how these findings can contribute to youth work practice and youth policy development.

THE CONTEXT 
The RAY Triangular Summit ‘International youth work and mobility: research evidence for policy and practice’ is organised by the network for the ‘Research-based Analysis and Monitoring of Youth in Action’ (RAY) in the Framework of the Erasmus+: Youth in Action. The RAY Network was established in 2007 and involves a growing range of research institutions, researchers and National Agencies of the European Union’s Youth in Action Programme (YiA) across Europe. Through RAY, the network seeks to explore the effects of Youth in Action, in particular on young people, youth workers and youth leaders and other actors involved in projects funded by the programme.

THE PURPOSE 
The conference will present the research findings of the network as a starting point for an informed discourse on how these findings can contribute to youth work practice and youth policy development. The conference will furthermore explore current research projects in the fields of learning mobility and international youth work.

THE PARTICIPANTS
The conference will bring together some 100 researchers, practitioners and policymakers in the field of international education and learning mobility from all over Europe with a non-exclusive focus on youth work and youth policy.

Invited are, in particular, researchers with an interest in a related theme including learning mobility, youth sociology and/or intergenerational studies; practitioners in the field of international youth work and mobility; representatives of European youth organisations; national agencies of the Youth in Action Programme; national agencies of the Lifelong Learning Programme; representatives of National Youth Authorities; members of the YiA Programme Committee and the EU Youth Working Party; and representatives of the European Union, the Council of Europe and the Youth Partnership.
