A ‘sea-change’ approach from governments and policy makers is needed to improve ‘limited opportunities’ for young people across the UK and Europe.
That is one of the key recommendations of the Cultural Heritage and Identities of Europe's Future research project, also known as CHIEF, which took place across nine countries, with Aston University as the lead coordinator.
Dr Katie Tonkiss, a senior lecturer in Sociology and Policy at Aston, was one of the UK researchers and has been heavily involved in writing up CHIEF's overall policy brief and recommendations.

Dr Anton Popov was the first interviewee in the new podcast series called ‘Our lives, our culture: youth in a changing world’, presented by journalist Steve Dyson, when CHIEF’s research with youth theatres was discussed.
This involved youth theatre groups in the UK cosmopolitan city of Coventry, and in the multicultural town of Komarno, Slovakia, which lies on the border of Hungary and has large Roma ethnic groups.
Dr Popov said: “In both cases, the youth theatres were driven by progressive agendas to develop effective and more inclusive dialogues between different ethnic groups and cultures."

11 AUG 2022 · Research confirms gender imbalance for cultural activities in India
Young women in India feel a sense of “frustration” and “anger” as a result of gender divisions that still exist within cultural practices in their country.
To overcome such divisions, interventions will be needed not only by the state and cultural organisations, but also within families themselves.
That is the outcome of research which was carried out by Anagha Tambe and Neha Ghatpande from Savitribai Phule Pune University in the city of Pune, in the western state of Maharashtra.
