New round of financial support for research activities

A new round of financial support is offered by the community Youth Education & Life Skills to promote and support research activities that fit the scope of YELS. We look forward to receiving your proposals before November 30, 2023.

Focus and values

In the Youth Education & Life Skills community, we study how education – both in school and elsewhere – can provide optimal support to our children and youth (from the ages of four to 24) to develop the skills they need to participate in society, now and in the future.

We value research activities that are in line with our core values: co-creation, multidisciplinarity, co-ownership and creativity and playfulness. We are open to all kinds of research activities that fit the scope and values of our community. As a suggestion, here are some activities that you could think of:

  • Start new multidisciplinary or transdisciplinary research collaborations
  • Prolong existing multidisciplinary or transdisciplinary research collaborations
  • Generate impact of your research on the scientific community
  • Generate impact of your research on practitioners or the general public

Be inspired

This is the second round of financial support offered by the Youth Education & Life Skills community. Are you curious about the projects of the first round? Read more about it below.
