You have expertise on an AFRICAN or ASIAN country as well as on YOUTH POLITICAL REPRESENTATION? Then this call from two of our network members (@kirareneekurz.bsky.social@britanlar.bsky.social) might be of interest for you!

Call for Contributions:
Edited Volume on YOUTH POLITICAL REPRESENTATION
 
As most research on youth representation so far is rather euro-centric, the planned volume aims to include not only the “usual suspects” but also cases that so far have not been in the focus. We aim for a global perspective and thus for chapters on a diverse range of countries.
 
Specifically, we are looking for political scientists working on youth representation from or with expertise on an AFRICAN or ASIAN country that would be interested in contributing to the book project.
 
Whilst this call is in English, contributions could potentially also be submitted in French and translated afterwards.
 
If you are interested or want to recommend someone, please get in touch via mail: kira.kurz@politik.uni-freibrg.de (en français or in English).

It is our hope that the YPRRN will continue to be a space for collaborative research and knowledge exchange.

Since 2020, members have come together to propose and arrange several conference panels and organized an international convening in Ottawa which has now resulted in the development of a special issue in Electoral Studies.

As a reminder the YPRRN is a privately run research network for academics, practitioners, and activists interested in the political representation of young adults, globally.
