Representing Girlguiding Scotland today at the #YLSConf23 , learning from a range of different organisations on the importance of youth work and community-based research. We are also giving our own talk on championing the voices of girls and young women 📣
First workshop session of the morning is on researching the impact of universal youth work. Reading stories and turning them into meaningful insights for what we are getting right and how we can improve #YLSConf23

Our #itsnotaboutthecanoes session got fairly silly, but all in order to explore how youthwork can be used to help young people develop strategies to cope with life outwith the youthwork setting. #animalpairs #YLSConf23
'The mental health of young people is the worst for decades. The role of youth work in the public health sector is crucial. Every young person should have access to a youth worker.'
