As the What Works Centre for Youth Employment, Youth Futures Foundation believes that a ‘what works’ approach to the creation, curation, sharing and translation of high-quality evidence is vital when making decisions affecting young people’s prospects.
Youth Futures Foundation is set to launch a new funding programme in 2024 that will encourage and support the sector to adopt evidence-based ways of working.
A common challenge found across the youth employment sector, is putting evidence into action through sharing and translation. Simply providing information about evidence-based programmes or practices is usually insufficient to change what funders, commissioners or practitioners do.
