We recently completed a survey of young people in the North West of Northern Ireland to better understand their ideas for change. 

Our survey collected 217 responses from young people in collaboration with Tedx Derry Londonderry.  The report explores youth opinions on government decision making, their biggest areas of concern and recommendations based on young people’s ‘big ideas’ for how change can create a better future. 

The analysis was led by Dr Ben Harper (Research Manager) and Anna DeWitt (Research Assistant).  Our future work will expand on the issues raised in this report with young people across Northern Ireland in order to develop evidence–based policy recommendations.
