YOUTH 2020 - The position of young people in Slovenia

32 STRUCTURE OF THE VOLUME The volume is structured in line with thematic sections addressed by the commissioned Mladina 2020 study and covers a wide span of topics tra- ditionally addressed by decennial studies on Slovenian youth, as well as topics currently very high on the priority list of public authorities and various other actors (e.g. digitalisation).
