NGOs develop their own standards - there isn't a general set of standards.

Turkey:
NGO's try to put a vision in the beginning of the year. There is no one standard which applies to all. They do set their own standards, according to the project that they are working on. There is no specific legislation on youth work.

Hungry:
Community Education. No specific studies. People from the University Social Sciences, etc. Start these activities.
Focus on people leaving on marginalised positions. (Disabilities, Political and Citizenship education)
Workshops how to find against these kind of issues.
No state funding.

UK: (England)
Defence on semi-professionalism. Series of national standards, agreed partners. They don't have legal status. No considered to be mandate. Standards and competences. They do constantly circulate.

Norway:

Competence centres funded by the state. Children is not solely seen as parents' responsibility.
