I'm a student at Drake University in the Global Youth Studies. I'm thinking about writing an article about the North–South divide youth in Latin America and maybe regarding Sexuality and gender identity-based cultures.

Proposal of planned research

[edit]

I have decided to edit the Wikipedia article Youth. Mainly because the information that it contains it's very general, lacks of content and also of sistemic bias. The most important factor that I will like to introduce is a subtitle regarding the global North–South divide and the differences that the youth has in several general subjects like the sexuality, sexual education and maybe employment opportunities.

In order to do so, I will check several bibliography regarding global south youth in both sexuality and employment availabe from the Cowles library at Drake. Also I will used several articles that we have seen in class and also futures ones from the class. For instance: the article today on "passing time" gives us very detailed information about the Global South youth which can be cited.

The main objetive of editing this article and make it more broad is for support this article with more systemic bias and also to introduce the global south youth like a another manifestation of the youth itself. In order to keep the neutrality standard I will like to cite the common patterns of the youth as a wolrd phenomena but also manifest the different challenges that it carries depending of the countries in which the people are. Finally I think that this new topic added to the article will help the notability of it and also be the the starting point for other editors to start working more on the main article!
