Our Mission
Youth in Central and Eastern Europe (YCEE) is an international peer-reviewed journal dedicated to research on young people in Central and Eastern Europe and neighbouring regions.
Our International Editorial Board brings together scholars representing different countries, disciplines and research traditions. Together, they advance the journal, foster international scientific collaboration and promote high-quality youth research.
Our ambition is to establish YCEE as the leading international forum for youth research in Central and Eastern Europe while strengthening the global visibility of scholarship produced across our region.
"Together, we are building the international voice of youth scholars in Central and Eastern Europe."
