Description du projet
Les sciences sociales citoyennes sur les jeunes sont essentielles à leur inclusion sociale
En Europe, de nombreux jeunes risquent l’exclusion de la société. Le projet YouCount, financé par l’UE, entend étudier la manière de créer des sociétés plus inclusives et plus adaptées aux jeunes. Par le biais des sciences sociales citoyennes sur les jeunes (YCSS pour «youth citizen social science»), des jeunes âgés de 15 à 29 ans aideront les chercheurs du projet à examiner les éléments constitutifs de l’inclusion sociale et à créer conjointement des innovations et des mesures pouvant contribuer à promouvoir l’inclusion sociale et l’appartenance chez les jeunes. Les travaux du projet fourniront également des indications sur les résultats de YCSS par des activités de sciences citoyennes.
Objectif
In Europe, and globally, substantial numbers of young people are at risk of social exclusion, and there is therefore a pressing need to develop more knowledge and innovation to create more inclusive and youth-friendly societies. Citizen social science might contribute to these needs, but the actual outcomes of citizen social science and its innovative potential is uncertain.
YOUCOUNT will therefore, through cocreative youth citizen social science (Y-CSS) including youths in the age of 15- 29 years as citizen scientists, produce new knowledge of positive drivers for social inclusion of youth at risk of exclusion, and cocreate innovations and policy-making. Moreover, to provide evidence of the actual outcomes of Y-CSS through hands on citizen science activities.
The project includes four substudies: 1) Development of a framework for Y-CSS together with a transdisciplinary consortium and multilevel platform of key experts and stakeholders in a European and international setting. 2) Implementation of a multiple case study of Y-CSS projects in nine countries across Europe where over 900 young citizen scientists and nine local living labs will cocreate innovations together. 3) Mixed-methods evaluation of the outcomes and impact of the Y-CSS activities, and a multi-criteria assessment of the costs and benefits of Y-CSS, and 4) Creation of social and scientific impact through widespread scaling up and continuity. These activities will lead to robust knowledge and scientifically reasoned measures to promote Y-CSS and social change. The project will support dissemination and education in Y- CSS, and make synergies with other CS related projects and initiatives, in particularly with citizen social science.
