Research department
The European Youth Card Association (EYCA) is
interested in knowing what young people think and why.
 EYCA launched a new project in January 2005, the
EYCAdemy, in order to establish a permanent structure
for youth research.
 EYCAdemy is the Trainer program, aimed at comparable
youth research, that is combined with comparative
European youth research projects.
 The EYCAdemy project is supported by the European
Commission and the Partial Agreement with the Council
of Europe.

In 2005 the first training with the EYCAdemy started with
participants from 12 countries, now there is 17 countries from
across Europe participated in the training in 2006 - the aim is
to have all 47 countries in Europe participate!
For Europe wide comparative qualitative research with more
than a few focus groups in each country more moderators than
the trained one are needed. So a network of similar trained
moderators for comparable European qualitative research is
to be established.
The researchers are also trained in consulting future clients
for the best method of social research; therefore other
methods of social research, qualitative and quantitative.
The major reason for using qualitative over quantitative
research is, that by using Focus Groups the reason ‘why’
young people hold a certain opinion about a given subject
versus ‘how many’ becomes transparent.
