Youth Friendly Cities Index (YFCI) Project

The project aims to raise awareness about youth participation, develop young people's sense of belonging in the region they live in, including young people in local decision-making processes, and make it sustainable. In this direction, surveys were conducted in 21 different cities. In these survey studies, the project was provided with data on the household structure of the youth, their media use, and their working status. These data were collected under the title of “Youth Well-Being”.
