Introduction
Current youth work is more and more focused on talent development to stimulate social participation, empowerment and active citizenship among young people with less opportunities.. Youth in Action projects offers young people and youth workers plenty of opportunities to acquire new competences and to develop their talents. But.. does talent development has a positive effect on young people. Does it contribute to inclusion and participation in society? What’s the value of talent development? How can it look like and how does it work? What are the challenges? What do young people gain? Under which conditions? In this study visit we will gather 25 youth workers from all around Europe to exchange practices in talent development and to give an insight in how talent development is being used in the Netherlands.
