Youth Work & Young People: Realising Potential, produced by YouthLink Scotland in partnership with Dundee University's Scottish Centre for Research in Community Learning and Development, is designed to contribute to the debate on youth work in Scotland, following the consultation on the country's youth work strategy.
The report criticises Youth Matters for the lack of recognition it gives to youth work practice and highlights the marginalisation of local authority youth services in emerging children's trusts.
YouthLink Scotland's chief executive Jim Sweeney, who wrote part of the report, said: "Our view is that England tried to get a quick fix."
