They will serve to learn more about mistakes we see being done when it comes to data protection through youth work and the impact of different situations that have caused violation of rights of participants of youth activities. The findings of these researches will serve for development of the methods and techniques that will insure the protection of privacy, identity and sensitive data in youth organizations.
