This chapter provides a global analysis of main concepts, approaches, and outcomes from engaging young people in participatory processes within development initiatives. The chapter summarizes factors and processes enabling meaningful participation of adolescents in program design research, monitoring, and evaluation. This analysis focuses on adolescents living under difficult circumstances, such as instability and protracted conflict, natural disasters, and health epidemics associated with climate change, systemic poverty, and other forms of social marginalization. These adolescents are often the recipients of international humanitarian and development agency support and programming, yet rarely have the opportunity to evaluate the relevance, effectiveness, and impact of these efforts for their daily lives and communities. As research demonstrated, the potential impact of these efforts far outweighs any barriers or challenges identified in the literature, and in the context of the Sustainable Development Goals, it is no longer an option to exclude young people’s voices in these processes
