Making it happen... Strengthening youth development in schools

This resource (published 2005) helps boards of trustees, principals and teachers apply the youth development approach within schools more effectively. Its development was the result of extensive consultation with a wide range of schools and educational organisations.

Based upon the six principles of the Youth Development Strategy Aotearoa, it provides ideas about how the concepts of youth development might be used.

Positive Youth development in schools
YDSA in action - YDSA in education focus groups
KIDS as planners - A guide to strengthening students, schools and communities through service-learning


Youth services:

How are the principles of the Youth Development Strategy Aotearoa reflected in grass-roots youth organisations? That's the question Phoebe Pollock explored in her Masters thesis, "Primal Youth: A case study of positive youth development in practice”.
