Sat, 13/08/2011 - 09:29 — Andrea Pescetti

The final report of the "European Digital Youth Information Project" (EDYIP), a networking project on the theme of online information for young people, run in 2010 and 2011 by seven European non-profit organizations including Youth Agora, has now been published. You can find it attached to this page (link below) or on the SHERYICA platform.

The aim of the research is to provide insights into the issues that young people face when searching for online information in order to inform the development of good practice on how best to reach young people through the internet. To this aim, an incentivised online survey was disseminated among 13 to 30 years old in six European countries between December 2010 and February 2011. The survey was online and disseminated mainly through online channels.
