The Youth and Violence GTG facilitates integration between applied and research efforts on behalf of youth who experience and/or participate in war and ethno-political violence with the purpose of providing reliable and salient evidence to be implemented in practice and programming efforts. It seeks to generate reliable and salient evidence on the functioning and needs of conflict youth, and to facilitate the cooperation of diverse professional groups actively engaged in the service of conflict-youth.
