Youth Development's 100 Year Legacy: Lessons to shape future research and practice (Webinar)
The current issue of the Journal of Youth Development commemorates the 100th anniversary of many national youth-serving organizations. In ten articles, authors reflect on research trends and influential contributions over time as well as on issues of practice that continue to evolve and challenge the field. The volume concludes with two commentaries about future directions for field-building.
During this webinar on the special issue of the Journal of Youth Development, guest editors Michelle Gambone, Joyce Walker and Kate Walker will engage commentary authors Dale Blyth and Reed Larson in a discussion of the historical context and three themes for the 21st century:
- The impact of divergent perspectives on youth development,
- The value of translational scholarship, and
- The importance of leveraging systems support.
The Webinar will be held 12:30-2:00 EST, 11:30-1:00 CST, 10:30-12:00 MST, 9:30-11:00 PST.
