Youth engagement review: final report

Details

The MOD review was commissioned in July 2010 by the Rt Hon Andrew Robathan MP, the Minister for Defence Personnel, Welfare and Veterans. The review was tasked to determine the defence requirement to engage with young people and how that engagement could be most cost effectively provided.

The study looked at defence within the community and how awareness of defence issues could be increased in the youth demographic. The review was led by Brigadier James Plastow CBE and engaged widely within defence, across government and the youth sector.
