The discussion was held in a focus group, which consisted of 9 students of Lviv Universities. Three hours of communication on topics of ecology, education, religion, socialization of youth, social challenges, healthy lifestyles were recorded on audio carriers, decoded and translated into English to provide materials for world research.

Research results will be published as national reports, and as a consolidated global report. Conclusions and recommendations from the reports will contribute to strengthening the national and international educational work of the YMCA in the interests of young people.
