This event on 29 November 2023 celebrated 20 years of the Young Life and Times (YLT) survey of 16 year olds.  YLT has covered a wide range of questions concerning young people's lives and it has become one of the main tools to inform policy making on and for young people in Northern Ireland.

In this presentation, Joseph van Matre (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam) used YLT data to explore volunteering and civic engagement amount young people.
