Youth research

    Transitional Network international wants to better understand the presence of young people in the global Transition movement. We know that young people are an important part of Transition, but they are not as visible as they should be.

    This survey should take around 10 minutes to complete. You can read it and answer it in the language of your choice. Your responses will help us develop resources, training, and connections tailored to youth-focused initiatives.


    What are we asking here?

    You have received this form because your group has reported that you are working on 'youth or education projects'. We would like you to know what this looks like in more detail.

    Why are we asking for this information?

    Getting a better understanding of youth in the Transition movement is an important first step for us to find the right ways to support them and the groups that work with them.

    We are interested in connecting young people across the international Transition Network so that they can collaborate and tell us what they need.

    We have lots of ideas of how we could support young people. We have been inspired by the work of the Collab Jovem in Brazil and Transition Youth Caucus in the UK, and we believe there are many more great examples to be found.

    It is important to us that young people make the decisions about how we should support them, so this data is important to help us begin connecting with them.

    Thank you for taking the time to respond to us and all the work you are doing.

    In community,
