Cross-Party Group on Youth Politics

Presented at a meeting of the Cross-Party Group on Youth Politics at Holyrood on Wednesday. There were many civic society actors present and of the three other experts two were citing our work on voting age and youth political attitudes. Also, several reputable organisations (including the Scottish Youth Parliament) said that they were using our research as a source in their submissions to the Smith commission. So the aim we had that organisations working on youth political engagement could utilise our research to substantiate their work empirically in policy discussions, seems to have been demonstrably achieved.
