A practical manual written by David Driskell, on how to conceptualise, structure and facilitate the participation of young people in the community development process.

The manual's core ideas and methods have been field-tested in a wide range of urban settings in both developing and industrialised cities through the work of the UNESCO Growing Up in Cities project.

Case studies from project sites help to demonstrate the methods in action and show how they can be customised to meet local needs. They provide lessons and insights to help ensure a successful project, and highlight the universal applicability and value of young people's participation.

Published in 2002 by Earthscan in association with UNESCO Publishing.

The book can be ordered online from the Unesco website.
