Find out moreDigital youth work means using digital tools and media proactively in youth work. It’s one of the youth work forms to engage with and support young people using things like apps, games, or online spaces.
- Digital youth work means proactively using or addressing digital media and technology in youth work.
- Digital youth work is not a youth work method – digital youth work can be included in any youth work setting (open youth work, youth information and counselling, youth clubs, detached youth work…).
- Digital youth work has the same goals as youth work in general, and using digital media and technology in youth work should always support these goals.
- Digital youth work can happen face-to-face, online environments, or a mixture.
- Digital media and technology can be used in youth work as tools, activities, or content.
- Digital youth work is underpinned by the same ethics, values and principles as youth work.
- Youth workers in this context refer to both paid and volunteer youth workers.
The goals and values are the same as in any youth work. Whether online or in person, digital youth work should support real needs. It can be a tool, an activity, or a topic. Explore digital youth work understanding and practices with your young people, peer youth workers and youth work managers.
Digital competencies and capacities for youth work
Youth workers need digital skills to support young people in a connected world. The Digital Competence Framework for Youth Workers helps them understand those skills. It covers using digital tools safely, supporting young people online, creating digital content, and understanding how technology affects society. The framework is built for both new and experienced youth workers.
Youth work organisations also need to keep up with digital change. The Digital Capacities Framework helps them look at their systems, tools, and ways of working. It focuses on staff training, digital tools, data protection, communication, and inclusion. It supports organisations in better planning and making digital part of their everyday work.
