About Becoming Adults in a Changing World UU

Young people are the innovators of tomorrow. As the citizens, professionals and policymakers of the future, they will be at the forefront of social progress. But the world in which young people are growing up is changing rapidly. The research community “Becoming Adults in a Changing World” contributes to youth welfare by promoting research and activities concerning the phase between adolescence and adulthood (ages 12–24) and the rapidly changing world in which the young people of today are growing up. Digitalisation, climate change, economic innovation and globalisation all have a major impact on the well-being and behaviour of young people and the way they look to the future.

'Becoming Adults in a Changing World' is part of ‘Dynamics of Youth’ (https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/dynamics-of-youth): one of the four strategic research themes of Utrecht University (https://www.linkedin.com/school/universiteit-utrecht).
