This analysis makes it possible to describe and analyse educators' methodological strategies in their contribution to youth empowerment processes and to determine how the use of these strategies relates to personal factors such as the size of the territory where they work, professional experience, specific youth training or the area of intervention in which they are located. All of the professionals agree on the importance of using active and participatory methodologies to promote and empower young people and declare that they are applied in a generalised way along with accompanying young people during the educational process.

Finally, the fields of professional practice allow us to associate certain methodological profiles
