We Care...but who cares for us? Youth policies for young parents! is a youth participation project that developed in spaces not typically associated with classic Youth Work: specifically, spaces in the community dedicated to families and early childhood. Having a child before the age of 30 often means interrupting one's studies, giving up professional goals, missing out on international or intercultural mobility experiences, and, in more isolated contexts, facing limited social interaction and reduced access to local opportunities and youth policy initiatives. These limitations can have a significant impact on the sense of isolation and overall well-being of young individuals. Young parents under 30 often lose their identity as “youths”—not legally, but in practice—finding themselves excluded from many opportunities for personal development and civic or social participation. "We Care..." focused on a specific segment of the youth population: young parents. It aimed to unlock resources and opportunities for this group, which plays an essential caregiving role in our societies and whose well-being and development should be a shared societal responsibility. The project offered them a chance to participate and make an impact on local life by breaking down the invisible barriers to participation that young parents face daily. The project aimed to promote gender equality, with a particular emphasis on the participation of young mothers. While the transition from youth to family life is challenging for all young parents, it is young women who pay the highest price. Therefore, the project incorporated a strong gender sensitivity, and the topics explored by the group stemmed from a societal analysis with a pronounced gender perspective. The initiative promoted the creation of a more inclusive society by engaging a rather uncommon target for youth work: young parents, thereby increasing access to non-formal education opportunities for marginalized youth. The project also developed specific formats and participation opportunities designed to ensure equitable access to those offered by European youth programs. The organization of structured dialogue events and discussions with policy makers allowed the project to strengthen the institutional system’s ability to listen to the voices of the most marginalized young people and to take their well-being, interests, and rights into account. Furthermore, the project fostered collaboration between organizations working in family support and those involved in youth work, encouraging mutual growth, improving work practices, and enhancing the capacity to work with marginalized young people. The project helped to create spaces for participation accessible to all. Young people are generally underrepresented in decision-making and community participation processes. Young parents face additional barriers due to caregiving responsibilities, the lack of support networks and services, and the absence of adequate spaces, times, and methods that would allow their personal development not to be interrupted by the start of their parenting journey. The project thus offered young people the chance to influence local policies that directly affect them and to evaluate, comment on, and propose changes to existing policies. It used communication languages and channels tailored to this specific target group and employed a “antenna” structure that turned the involved young people into multipliers of participatory processes within their everyday environments. The project "We Care...but who cares for us?" contributed to the general objectives of the Erasmus+ program by promoting lifelong learning opportunities in the youth field, aiming to strengthen social cohesion and active citizenship. Through non-formal education tools, it supported a process of active participation, capacity-building, and empowerment of a group of young parents, ultimately leading to meaningful dialogue with political decision-makers that could influence local youth policies.
