The Youth Power Survey is a UK-wide report from November 2022 authored by the Centre for Youth Impact.
Its focus is on how organisations support young people’s participation in decision-making and how this has evolved since a similar 2010 survey conducted by Children’s Rights Alliance England.
It presents a snapshot from 269 organisations across the UK, capturing insights into their experience, methods, strengths, and gaps in supporting youth voice and influence.
The aims of this work were to:
- Understand current youth participation practice. Insight into where, how, and on which issues young people are supported to influence decisions.
- Track change over time. Comparison with 2010 findings to identify developments in youth engagement and support.
- Inform stakeholders. Provide funders, practitioners, and young people with evidence to strengthen equitable, high-quality participation opportunities.
- Lay groundwork for future tracking. Establishing a foundational dataset that can be expanded in subsequent years toward a robust longitudinal resource.
