Youth voice refers to the distinct ideas, opinions, attitudes, knowledge, and actions of young people as a collective body. The term youth voice often groups together a diversity of perspectives and experiences, regardless of backgrounds, identities, and cultural differences. It is frequently associated with the successful application of a variety of youth development activities, including service learning,〔Garvey, J., McIntyre-Craig, C., & Myers, C. (2000). "Youth voice: The essential element of service-learning," In C. Myers and M. Bellener (Eds.) ''Embedding service-learning into teacher education: Issue briefs.'' Indianapolis, IN: The Center for Youth as Resources.〕 youth research,〔Kirshner, B., O'Donoghue, J., & McLaughlin, M. (2005) "Youth-adult research collaborations: Bringing youth voice to the research process," In J. L. Mahoney & R. W. Larson (Eds.) ''Organized activities as contexts of development: Extracurricular activities, after-school and community programs.'' (pp. 131-156): Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, Publishers.〕 and leadership training.〔Bruce, J., Nicola, S. & Menke, T. (2006) "(Listening to the Youth Voice in Planning Leadership Development Programs )," ''Journal of Extension. 44''6. December 2006.〕 Additional research has shown that engaging youth voice is an essential element of effective organizational development among community and youth-serving organizations.〔Zeldin, S. (2004) "Youth as Agents of Adult and Community Development: Mapping the Processes and Outcomes of Youth Engaged in Organizational Governance ," ''Applied Development Science. 8''(2), pp 75-90.〕 == Applications == Many youth organizations and community activities cite youth voice as an important factor to their successful operations.〔Fletcher, A. (2006) (Washington Youth Voice Handbook ) Olympia, WA: CommonAction(2006)〕 The field of Positive Youth Development also promotes youth voice by striving to inspire confidence and social engagement for young people. Examples of School-oriented youth voice efforts include the VicSRC, an Australian student voice organization.〔Fletcher, A. (2005) ''(Stories of meaningful student involvement ).'' Bothell, WA: HumanLinks Foundation.〕 Other examples include: *Youth service〔Tackett, W.
