In the context of the project, the aim was to further develop the transdisciplinary and intersectional methodological framework for researching social inequality among young people and to engage in a translocal and transdisciplinary exchange with international academic partners and NGOs. In this regard, the YOUTH Spring School was conceived as an educational format based on the principles of academic co-production, in which the consortium partners of the project and NGOs from different regions of the world as well as international students jointly produce new forms of urban knowledge that are relevant for young people, universities and society in general. The Spring School focussed on the question of how the use of technology affects young people’s (in)equal access to and use of public space.
