One of the most misused words I hear is "empowerment" - often used without consideration to what "power" we are able to hand over. More recently "participation" is the shiny terminology used to express how committed we are to the involvement of young people, but here too I wonder how much thought staff give to how they participate in their field or what opportunities they have to influence policies, projects and so on.
