Zusammenfassung

The study is a part of the FES European Youth Studies project. It investigates the opinions of about 3,900 young people aged 14-29 from the three Baltic states, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, on a broad range of issues that concern their experiences and aspirations in different realms of life. These include education, employment, political participation and family relationships, as well as values, attitudes and beliefs. In addition, ten individual interviews and three focus group interviews were conducted in each country. Baltic young people see socioeconomic difficulties, such as low wages, unemployment, inequality and poverty, as the most significant issues their countries will face over the coming decade. Furthermore, they report strong awareness of environmental concerns, such as pollution and climate change. The study also unveils significant gender differences concerning political activism. While young women have more often participated in individualistic or distanced actions, young men are more likely to be involved in more cooperative, active and socially engaged political participation, such as involvement in demonstrations or work in political parties/groups.
