The effects that the pandemic has been having on youth work and young people start start now to be analysed and fully understood, however it has been clearly visible the need and efforts made to answer to young people, youth organizations and youth workers’ needs through digital youth work and through the use of digital tools withing formal and non-formal education. The challenges faced, the skills acquired, the platforms developed, the spaces created and the needs that have not been responded to brought to light the work that needs to be done in what regards to meaningful online participation, to make the best and most ethical use of online spaces of participation, education and shaping our relationships
