The Digital Youth Work Research Hub is hosted by the University of Leeds within the INCLUDE+ Network. We bring together researchers, practitioners, policy makers and young people to explore how digital technologies are reshaping youth work practice and what this means for young people’s inclusion and participation.

Our work centres the voices and experiences of youth workers and youth work organisations. We believe that the sector holds crucial knowledge about what works, what doesn’t, and what young people actually need—knowledge that too often goes unrecognised in policy and funding conversations.
