towards effective collaboration graduation thesis

Abstract

Youth workers work with young people to facilitate their personal, social, and political development through non-formal and informal education, counselling, and leisure activities. Furthermore, they support youth to have a voice in communities. Slovenian youth sector is highly engaged and active in working with young people where they are at. Slovenian youth spend most of the day in schools. Considering the previous facts, having youth work in schools is not only beneficial for young people, but also for schools and communities. "Youth work in Schools" is a concept for delivering informal and non-formal learning in formal settings. For instance, in primary and secondary schools. With this graduation thesis, I explored the possibilities of cooperation between the youth sector and schools in the Municipality of Ljubljana. First, I explored how youth workers imagine this partnership. Namely, what approaches, activities, and methods would they use when working in and with schools. Later, I focused on possible chances and challenges which the youth sector and schools may deal with in the partnership. Finally, I explored what youth workers think which practices and experiences from abroad could be adopted to Slovenia and why. For instance, practices observed and experiences gained by participating in mobility programmes for youth workers.

Secondary abstract:	Mladinske delavke in mladinski delavci podpirajo mlade v njihovem osebnostnem, socialnem in politično-izobraževalnem razvoju skozi informalno in neformalno učenje, svetovanje in prostočasne dejavnosti. Omogočajo mladim, da imajo svoj glas v skupnosti. Mladinski sektor v Sloveniji je visoko angažiran in aktiven v delu z mladimi. Slovenska mladina večino svojega dneva preživi v šolah. Ob upoštevanju naštetega lahko sklepamo, da bo imelo mladinsko delo v šolah pozitiven vpliv ne le na mlade, temveč tudi na šole in skupnost. "Mladinsko delo v šolah" je koncept za aplikacijo formalnega in neformalnega učenja v formalnih okoljih, in sicer v osnovnih in srednjih šolah. Z diplomskim delom sem raziskoval priložnosti sodelovanja mladinskega sektorja in šol v mestni občini Ljubljana. Raziskoval sem, kako mladinske delavke in mladinski delavci opredeljujejo to partnerstvo, katere pristope, aktivnosti in metode bi radi uporabljali v svojemu delu v šolah in s šolami. Osredotočil sem se na priložnosti in izzive, s katerimi bi se mladinski sektor in šole soočali v okviru svojega partnerstva. Raziskoval sem, katere prakse in izkušnje iz tujine bi, po mnenju mladinskih delavk in delavcev, lahko aplicirali v Sloveniji, na primer ogledane prakse in pridobljene izkušnje iz tujine skozi udeležbo na programih mobilnosti za mladinske delavke in delavce.
