Özet:

 The aim of this study is to conduct a comparative analysis of the youth policy strategy documents of Turkey and the European Union EU in the context of the Sustainable Green Europe goals, with a particular focus on youth participation. Within this framework, the role and importance attributed to youth participation in achieving the Sustainable Green Europe objectives are examined based on the EUs youth policy strategy documents. In the first section of the study, the ways in which youth participation is ensured in the process of achieving the European Youth Goals are explored. The second section focuses on the importance that the Republic of Turkey, as a candidate country for EU membership, attaches to youth participation and how this approach is reflected in its national youth policy strategy documents. In this context, the ways in which youth participation is encouraged in Turkey in the process of achieving these goals are examined. The latter part of the second section evaluates the extent to which Turkeys youth policy documents align with the European Youth Goals under the heading of a Sustainable Green Europe. In the third section, a comparative analysis of the youth strategy documents of both parties is presented. The comparison particularly focuses on how the documents address key issues such as youth participation, sustainability, and green transformation; in this context, conceptual and content-based consistency, prioritization levels, and proposed measures for implementation are assessed. The main assumption of this study is that the level of alignment between the strategic documents prepared by public institutions and organizations in Turkey concerning youth participation and the Sustainable Green Europe goals is relatively low.

 Çalışmanın amacı Sürdürülebilir Yeşil Avrupa hedefleri bağlamında Türkiye ile Avrupa Birliğinin AB Gençlik politikası strateji belgelerinin gençlik katılımı özelinde karşılaştırmalı incelemesidir. Bu çerçevede Sürdürülebilir Yeşil Avrupa hedeflerinin gerçekleştirilmesinde gençlik katılımına verilen rol ve önem Birliğin gençlik politikası strateji belgeleri temelinde ele alınmıştır. Çalışmanın ilk bölümünde, Avrupa Gençlik Hedeflerine ulaşmada gençlik katılımının nasıl sağlandığı incelenmiştir. İkinci bölümde ise, Türkiye Cumhuriyetinin ABye aday ülke olarak gençlik katılımına verdiği önem ve bu yaklaşımın ulusal gençlik politikası strateji belgelerine nasıl yansıdığı incelenmiştir. Bu çerçevede, Türkiyede gençlik katılımının söz konusu hedeflere ulaşma sürecinde nasıl teşvik edildiği ele alınmıştır. İkinci bölümün devamında ise, Türkiyedeki gençlik politikası belgelerinin, Sürdürülebilir Yeşil Avrupa başlığı altındaki Avrupa Gençlik Hedefleri ile ne ölçüde uyumlu olduğu değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmanın üçüncü bölümünde ise iki tarafa ait gençlik strateji belgelerindeki karşılaştırmalara yer verilmiştir. Karşılaştırmada özellikle gençlik katılımı, sürdürülebilirlik ve yeşil dönüşüm gibi temel konulara belgelerin nasıl yaklaştığı incelenmiş; bu bağlamda belgeler arası kavramsal ve içeriksel tutarlılık, önceliklendirme düzeyleri ve uygulama önerileri değerlendirilmiştir. Bu çerçevede çalışmanın temel varsayımı; Türkiyenin gençlik katılımı ile ilgili kamu kurum ve kuruluşlarınca oluşturulan stratejik belgelerin Sürdürülebilir Yeşil Avrupa Hedefleri ile uyum düzeyinin düşük olduğudur.
