| Abstract: | The purpose of this report is to present the findings of a quantitative study concerning youth civic/political engagement on the Maltese Islands. A survey was distributed to 498 participants (aged between 16 and 25), asking them for their views on political engagement, community engagement, and specific issues of interest such as religious faith, ideologies, health and the environment. This executive summary presents the methodology utilised, together with key findings and recommendations for educating youth about civic and political engagement. Following Barrett & Pachi (2019), in this research report, political engagement refers to “the engagement of an individual with political institutions, processes and decision-making” (p. 3), whereas civic engagement refers to “the engagement of an individual with the concerns, interests and common good of a community”. |
