MDI examines the functionality of the youth exclusion prevention service system and the effectiveness of the services

MDI is involved in a study led by NHG Finland Oy which examines the functionality of the youth exclusion prevention service system and the effectiveness of the services. The study has been commissioned by the Parliamentary Audit Committee and its results will be published by the end of 2021.

MDI’s role in the study is to investigate the effects of funding targeted at preventing the exclusion of young people and to assess how the links between social security and the service system affect young people’s opportunities to study and participate in working life. In addition, the study examines the financing flows in relation to these anti-exclusion services, focusing on inter-actor flows. In effectiveness terms, it is important to evaluate the impact of the money spent and what it will achieve.
