From 2013, the Youth Research Centre of The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups has been conducting a series of studies, looking into various topical issues related to the young people of the city. The series has adopted two research methodologies: (1) desk top research from secondary sources; and (2) primary source data collection through surveys. Where necessary, the studies will also have a policy recommendation component. The studies will be publicized through press releases and articles, along with a free download.
