YOUTH WORK
digital resource hub
About this site
We hope you find what you’re looking for on the digital youth work hub. Our aim is to
gather together the most relevant resources for anyone involved in making digital youth
work happen here in Scotland.
Why this?
The hub is full of useful resources about digital youth work, all gathered together in one
place, including upcoming events, training and policy guidance.
Why now?
When the COVID-19 lockdown began, the level of interest in digital youth work suddenly
shot through the roof. We started gathering together and sharing resources that we
thought would be useful to the youth work sector, especially at a time when so much youth
work was happening online. This website is the result.
Now as, we shift again, into a phase when online and face-to-face are happening together,
we’ll be adding to our resources.
We have been interested in digital youth work since around 2010 and we know it’s a topic
that’s of long term interest and relevance, so we’re investing in the future. We have a close
connection with digitalyouthwork.eu and have worked closely with our partners in Europe
to develop many of the resources.
Who’s it for?
You, if you are involved in digital youth work in Scotland!
Who’s involved?
The Digital Youth Work Hub was created by YouthLink Scotland with support from key

The small print
We’ve done everything we can to ensure that the material that we are sharing is useful,
relevant and up to day. However, as we are mostly acting as a hub, pointing to content that
belongs to others, we cannot vouch for the accuracy of the content that sits on other
websites.
