Global Youth Work
Improving Practice Series
The impact of globalisation and international activities
on young people's lives can be direct or indirect but it is difficult
to deny this exists. We all live in a society connected to the rest
of the world on a daily basis, by food, work, music, sport, clothes,
travel, TV, film and the internet.
This publication is based on the work of DEA members and others
within voluntary and local authority youth services who seek to
explore these issues and look beyond the local to the global influences
on young people's lives in the UK today.
Written by PJ White, five case studies offer an outline of each
project and the reflections of the workers and young people involved
as a flavour of global youth work in practice.
As Peter says, "The projects described here show crucial aspects
of what global youth work is all about - what can be achieved, what
the limits are, what the pitfalls might be and how they might be
overcome. The main aim is to capture the spirit and character of
the work ... these case studies are little windows on practice,
glimpses into what it is like, what can and has been done."
