- Positive_youth_development abstract "Positive Youth Development, or PYD is a strengths based view of adolescence that finds its origins in ecological systems theory. It likewise shares some conceptual space with the relatively recent advent of positive psychology principles. Central to its philosophy, the theory of PYD suggests that “if young people have mutually beneficial relations with the people and institutions of their social world, they will be on the way to a hopeful future marked by positive contributions to self, family, community, and civil society”. To that end, PYD refers to intentional efforts of other youth, adults, communities, government agencies, and schools to provide opportunities for youth to enhance their interests, skills, and abilities. “The positive youth development approach aims at understanding, educating and engaging children in productive activities rather than at correcting, curing or treating them for maladaptive tendencies or so-called disabilities”. In addition, PYD is usually used in scientific literature and by practitioners who work with youth to refer to programs designed to optimize developmental progress. It is distinguished from 'child development' or 'adolescent development' in its focus on the active promotion of optimal human development, rather than on the scientific study of age related change or as solely a means of avoiding risky behaviors. Rather than grounding its developmental approach in the presence of adversity, risk or challenge, a PYD approach considers the potential and capacity of each individual young person. A hallmark of these programs is that they are based on the concept that children and adolescents have strengths and abilities unique to their developmental stage and that they are not merely 'inadequate' or 'undeveloped' adults. Lerner and colleagues write: "The goal of the positive youth development perspective is to promote positive outcomes. This idea is in contrast to a perspective that focuses on punishment and the idea that adolescents are broken".PYD is both a vision, an ideology and a new vocabulary for engaging with youth development. Its tenets can be organized into the 5 C’s which are:•competence•confidence•connection•character•caringWhen these 5 C’s are present, the 6th C of “contribution” is realized.".
