“Young people in Europe spend an increasing amount of their time, consuming digital media and technology…These can provide a place for young people to learn, to share their experiences, to exchange their views, to have fun with their friends and to actively participate in society” (Developing digital youth work - Policy recommendations, training needs and good practice examples for youth workers and decision-makers : expert group set up under the European Union Work Plan for Youth for 2016-2018)Enabling youth participation with digital tools is mentioned as one of innovative practices in youth work in the Publication of the European Commission quoted above. Digital tools can be used to support the already existing structures and processes of youth participation or to incentivize e-participation in online environments or a combination of both that can be complementary. Although some work has already been done in exploring digital youth work in Europe and e-participation in general, there is still not enough systematised information about digital tools for youth participation in decision-making processes in particular.Therefore DYPALL Network and its partners have decided to implement this 18 months long project with the following objectives:• To identify and promote digital tools for engaging youth in decision-making processes at local level;• To reflect about key concepts of digital and e-participation and their applicability to youth participation in decision making processes in the local governance; • To build capacities of youth workers to foster digital participation of young people at local level;• To develop an online database and a publication that will collect best practices of digital and e-participation tools for youth engagement in decision-making processes in the local governance and serve as a resource tool for youth workers, organisations and municipalities.Throughout the project, we will be working on researching and collecting best practice examples of digital tools that enable youth participation in decision-making processes at the local level. These tools will be gathered from all around Europe, not limited only to the countries that partner organisations are coming from, in order to ensure diversity and quality of the results. They will then be published in an online database and also turned into a Publication of the Study on Digital Participation Tools for Youth Engagement in Local Governance.
