Research

Many young people show growing concern about the climate crisis and are determined to take action and make their voices heard. Both local governments and youth organizations want to involve young people in sustainability projects, by having them actively participate in the (re)design of public spaces. But how do you approach this concretely if you are a youth organization, city or municipality?

What environmental factors have an impact on healthy ageing? In this project, we seek to develop a screening and monitoring tool to map the age-friendliness of cities.

Gender-inclusive spaces thrive
The name of the G.I.R.L! project – from the Dutch ‘gender inclusieve ruimte leeft’, or ‘gender-inclusive space is alive’ – illustrates our objective perfectly: we want to make the concept of inclusive space come alive and bring attention to the issues of teenage girls. We look at whether urban sports can empower girls to claim their place in public spaces.

Youth engagement and environment tool
Bringing youth together to think about public space is the ultimate aim of the YET project. We let young people’s creativity run wild!
