Review of of Youth Work Provision in Wales - Have your say

Cyfle i fod yn rhan o astudiaeth yn edrych ar ddarpariaeth gwaith ieuenctid yng Nghymru.

Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi comisiynu adolygiad o Strategaeth Gwaith Ieuenctid Cenedlaethol Cymru 2014-2018 er mwyn gwerthuso effaith y strategaeth ar ddarpariaeth gwaith ieuenctid.

Bydd yr adolygiad yn dynodi cryfderau, gwendidau, bygythiadau a chyfleoedd, ac ystyried bylchau yn y strategaeth bresennol. Bydd canfyddiadau’r ymchwil yn cael eu cyflwyno i Lywodraeth Cymru gyda’r gobaith o hysbysu strategaeth Gwaith Ieuenctid yn y dyfodol.

Mae’r ymchwil yn cael ei chynnal gan staff ym Mhrifysgol Glyndŵr Wrecsam (Jess Achilleos, Hayley Douglas, Mandy Robbins), Prifysgol Fetropolitan Caerdydd (Steve Drowley a Cez James), ac ymgynghorydd annibynnol (Susanne Rauprich).

Gwahoddir pobl sy’n darparu gwasanaethau gwaith ieuenctid i gymryd rhan yn yr astudiaeth hon. Gall cyfranogwyr fod yn gweithio ar lefel ymarferol neu lefel strategol, ac anogir y rhai sy’n gweithio yn y sector gwaith ieuenctid statudol a gwirfoddol i gymryd rhan.

Bydd cymryd rhan yn golygu llenwi 
holiadur ar-lein, sy’n cau ar 22 Mai, a fydd yn cymryd oddeutu 15 munud i’w gwblhau. Ar ddiwedd yr holiadur, gofynnir i chi a hoffech gymryd rhan mewn grŵp ffocws. Bydd y grŵp ffocws yn cynnwys cyfweliad lled-strwythuredig a thrafodaeth ryngwladol a fydd yn rhoi cyfle i chi roi barn a safbwyntiau mwy manwl.

Cynhelir y grwpiau ffocws ar y dyddiadau canlynol:
·    18 Mai, 1pm i 3.30pm yn Neuadd Tref Dinbych, Lôn Crown, Dinbych LL16 3TB
·    24 Mai, 12pm i 2.30pm yn Nhŷ Baltig, Sgwâr Mount Stuart, Caerdydd CF10 5FH

A chance to get involved in a study looking at youth work provision in Wales.

The Welsh Government has commissioned a review of the National Youth Work Strategy for Wales 2014-2018, to evaluate the strategy’s impact on youth work provision.

The review will identify strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities, and consider gaps in the current strategy. Findings from this research will be presented to the Welsh Government with the hope of informing future Youth Work strategy.

The research is being conducted by staff from Wrexham Glyndwr University (Jess Achilleos, Hayley Douglas, Mandy Robbins), Cardiff Metropolitan University (Steve Drowley and Cez James), and an independent consultant (Susanne Rauprich).

People who deliver youth work services in Wales are invited to take part in this study.  Participants can be at a practice level or strategic level, and those who work in the statutory and voluntary youth work sector are also encouraged to get involved.

Taking part involves the completion of an 
online questionnaire, with a deadline of 22 May, which will take about 15 minutes to complete. At the end of the questionnaire you will be asked if you would like to participate in a focus group. The focus group will involve a semi-structured interview and interactive discussion that will give you the opportunity to provide more in-depth views and opinions.

The focus groups will take place on the following dates:
·         18 May, 1pm to 3.30pm at Denbigh Town Hall, Crown Lane, Denbigh LL16 3TB
·         24 May, 12pm to 2.30pm at Baltic House, Mount Stuart Square, Cardiff CF10 5FH 

Both will begin with light lunch and then two hour session.
