It claims projects that offer a safe space for young people to exercise leadership in can play a major role in addressing challenges such as falling confidence in political leaders and increasingly difficult transitions.
Elsewhere The Edge explores Tory party youth policy plans, local democracy, solutions for engaging young people, intergenerational work, arts work, plans for information, advice and guidance, detached youth work and the onward march of YouthBank as it celebrates its 10th birthday.
