Our community is a network of researchers, youth organizations, and youth, where they can connect with each other and create synergy around a common purpose of promoting positive youth development. We offer financial support for projects that are in line with the community’s goals: generating knowledge about adolescence and emerging adulthood by building relationships and learning in an interdisciplinary and multiperspective way.
