THE INITIAL PROJECT
THE YOUTH EMPOWERMENT PEDAGOGICAL MODEL.
Young FORMATION
Acquire and develop various personal skills
RIGHT ENVIRONMENT
Context and resources
Personal capabilities Action possibility
Young empowered
(because he/she can...)
DECIDE
AND
ACT
His/her life and the community Reality
EMPOWERMENT CONCEPT
Empowerment
is the process that increases the possibilities:
that a person can decide and act consistently on everything that affects his/her own live;
to participate in decision-making and intervene in a shared and responsible manner with respect to the community of which it is a part.
This requires two conditions:
that the person is acquiring and developing a series of personal capabilities (knowledge, attitudes, aptitudes, skills)
that the environment facilitates him/her to effectively exercise these capabilities.
PEDAGOGICAL MODEL OF YOUTH EMPOWERMENT:
DATA ON YOUTH
EMPOWERMENT
SAMPLE: N = 890
Representative sample of young people between 20 and 24 years old (maximum error 3.28%, confidence level 95%). Corresponding random sample.
MAIN RESULTS (1)
- Young people empower more in these situations:
Living alone. Get a job. Have a relationship Meet an exceptional person.
- Greatest empowerment spaces are:
Family. Higher education. Leisure activities. Friends.
- Progressive empowerment process up to 20 years.
MAIN RESULTS (2) EMPOWERMENT AND PROFILE OF THE YOUNG
PERSON
More empowered youth: Do work. Economically independent. Professional studies and are studying a degree. Less empowered youth: Do not work. Do not study. Secondary level of studies. Low incomes.
WHAT DO YOUNG PEOPLE CONTRIBUTE TO THE YOUTH EMPOWERMENT?
CONCLUSIONS OF PARTICIPATORY EVALUATION WITH YOUNG PEOPLE
All the groups constructed their own conceptualizations and
definitions of the YE concept and put it in relation to their own lives.
In the four groups, the YE associates a personal process; an
internal transformation that goes through one-self, although social influence is recognized.
All validate the YE definition presented by the research team. The understanding of the indicators varies between groups, but they
coincide in the difficulty of understanding the meta-learning indicator.
The four groups validate the battery of YE indicators presented
by the research team.
All the groups perform a hierarchy of the indicators. Autonomy and
self-esteem are considered, in general, the most important.
CONCLUSIONS OF PARTICIPATIVE EVALUATION WITH YOUNG PEOPLE
In all the groups the subject of spaces, moments and processes
- f YE is treated from personal experiences.
The YE is related to spaces related to the family, school
and friends.
The processes that appear in the spaces have to do with
- vercoming experiences that provide young people a
perception of success, of overcoming, of being important to someone or, finally, of feeling well-being.
Learning processes and personal growth are identified in
all cases, either to overcome studies or to be brave enough to abandon them because they are not what they wanted to do.
Overcoming processes are detected in which to be able to
move forward in adverse situations or fragility.
YOUTH EMPOWERMENT VARIABLES.
METHODOLOGICAL PROCESS
Indicators selection - Project: the YE community actions as a learning methodology for empowerment.
Contrast with the scientific literature Validation by experts Empirical validation with young people: 5 processes of participatory evaluation + 6 life stories
Building youth empowerment indicators that can guide actions for the design of youth policies, programs or services.

THE STORY OF YOUNG PEOPLE: LIFE STORIES.
- Interpretation and
perception of the meanings and symbols, interactions and interpretations of the actors about their experience and its help to build reality.
Why?
- To know their own history,
from its nuances and its perception, representation about moments, spaces and processes that have made them feel empowered.
For what?
- Preliminary moment.
- Contact and commitment
- Data collect.
- First analysis and return.
- Second analysis
How?
THE RAPPORTEURS
Neither geniuses nor superheros
SOME RESULTS
Value of the interrelations of referring persons and
also of the critical incidents and the decision and action possibilities.
Spaces are reference, offering security and developing
confidence, promoting moments or processes.
Adolescence as a capital moment in the development
- f elements such as security, confidence and self-
esteem.
Importance of questioning the environment, and the
view of others.
Opportunity contexts allow to put capacities into
practice from one's own choice.
Conflicts, when they can be managed and solved, put
competencies and skills into play and new ones emerge.
LIFE STORIES BY YOUNG PEOPLE: WEB HEBE AND WEBDOC.
Own
methodology: audiovisual pedagogical workshop.
6 young people between 18 and 27 years old. 3 audiovisual pieces: self-portrait, reference and
empowering space, equivalent to the processes, people and moments indicators.
2 focus group with the participants on creation
methodologies for empowerment and on their work results analysis.
1 focus group with experts for
the conceptualization, the methodology analysis and the
- bservation
- f
young people pieces.
Interactive
participation through the webdoc platform.
FUNDAMENTALS OF HEBE WEBDOC
OWN METHODOLOGY
8 sessions of acquisition of transversal competences over 2 months and developed in 3 phases: Phase 1. Audiovisual creation workshop:
- Session 1. Presentation of the workshop.
- Session 2. Pedagogy of the images.
- Session 3. Observation of the other.
- Session 4. Listen to the sound.
- Session 5. Narrative and esthetic group work.
- Session 6. Specialized discussion session.
- Session 7. Analysis and discussion about the pieces.
- Session 8. Focus group with specialists.
Phase 2. Documentary architecture:
- Navigation by the following criteria: participants, indicators, themes, user
interaction.
Phase 3. Disclosure and participation:
- Implementation of the methodology in formal and informal learning centers, and
participation in the webdoc.
CONCLUSIONS
Trial-error
learning and personal growth
- f
participants and users.
Exploration of the concept of youth empowerment
that is in itself an empowering mechanism.
Instrumental
support through citizen science dynamics and scientific contribution through the participation of users.
The architecture of the webdoc is available as a
digital learning tool for the narration of personal stories.
