Abstract:
This study focuses on the emerging phenomenon of youth hangouts as a self-managed sphere for leisure and free time in the context of the Basque Country. The aim of this research was to analyse the following: the characterisation of these spaces and the profile of their participants; possible problems of coexistence; and youth participation and development in their context and in relation to their community. Employing a quantitative methodology, questionnaires were administeried to a sample of 2,014 young people from seven municipalities of Bizkaia (Basque Country). Some of the most significant findings refer to the continuous growth of this phenomenon and the consideration of youth spaces as a context for growth and social participation. These are important aspects to be considered when developing educational and youth policies.
