ABSTRACT

It is no easy task to write the concluding remarks of a collective endeavour, at least not if one has been deeply involved in the effort that the endeavour required. One can say that one has to take on the “burden of the privileged”. The volume in hand has been part and parcel of an “adventurous” and unique journey that began in 2018 – if not earlier. As these lines are being written, in the autumn of 2023, the Youthshare project – the project within which most of the research presented here was produced – is nearing its official end. But an official end does not necessarily mean the actual end of things, ideas and relationships that are solid and meant to last and perhaps even be remembered for a long time.
