Youth workers must never ignore intersectional discrimination, as such behaviour can have serious consequences for individuals and entire communities. Young people are particularly vulnerable.
Young people who experience intersectional discrimination can feel alienated, isolated and invisible in society. The consequences of ignoring intersectional discrimination for young people can be:
• social isolation and marginalisation of young people;
• psychological problems (depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, low self-confidence or
self-image);
• lower educational achievements;
• behavioural problems;
• increased levels of stress and negative emotions;
• limited access to employment;
• poorer prospects to improve their economic situation;
• less chance of promotion;
• increasing inequality;
• poorer health and access to healthcare services;
• distrust in social systems.
