青年研究實踐中心將這次會議的部分研究報告集結這本論文集，收錄了十二篇來自華人社會的研究成果、實踐反思及學術文章。這些文章的範圍雖然十分廣泛，但也可從青年隔閡與融合的角度閱讀，並從中得到啟發。

Summary:
當你去旅行時，會否參考一些旅遊書籍或地圖呢？不同背景的旅遊書作者所勾畫的地方，也許會協助你從不同的角度欣賞及體會那個地方，也為那個地方帶來不同的「身」。例如台灣究竟是一個吃喝玩樂的地方？或是一個充滿文化氣息的地方？ 還是一個休閒靈修的地方？進行「敘事實踐」時，我們也會參考不同的「對話地圖」作為方向的指引，從不同角度發掘個人的多元身份 (multipleidentities) 、豐厚個人選取的故事、建構不同的生命意義。社會上有不同的組群，他們的身份正正受著單薄的故事所影響，被主流社會論述定義為「有問題的人」，例如「抑鬱」的長者、「精神病」人、「有學習障礙子女」的家長、「性暴力」受害者、「戒毒」青年人等，重點是他們並不喜歡(prefer)這個身份。敘事實踐者運用「對話地圖」，陪伴當事人一起探索生命的路向，發掘一直被遺忘的生命故事。
Book title: 「邊青」是這樣煉成的 ─ 敘事角度下外展工作的實踐
Editor: Evangelical Lutheran Church Social Service-Hong Kong, Hong Kong Baptist University - The Centre for Youth Research and Practice
Date of Publication: July 2017
Publisher: 紅出版 (圓桌文化)
Summary:
《「邊青」是這樣煉成的》是外展社工團隊將敘事實踐應用在用藥青少年個案上的故事及分析，傳統的治療理論著重分析問題及解決問題，而敘事實踐手法重點在尋找問題以外的故事，及隱藏了的個人價值觀，讓當事人發展出與問題抗衡的身份，將介入焦點由如何改變他們的弱項（問題）轉為發掘及發展他們的強項（能力）。過去，我們只會集中看案主的用藥問題，因敘事實踐的理念，現在放下了問題導向，反而令我們更全面的認識這班青少年人，明白他們及欣賞他們。
本書記載了各位作者對敘事理念和技巧的闡釋﹑青年服務對象和社工的相遇及他們的故事。本書亦匯集了不同社工的實務心得，例如運用技巧如「問題外化」﹑「搭棚架對話」﹑「局外人見證」等；有助讀者更了解敘事實踐法背後的精神，對社工極有參考價值。

Summary:
2011 年 9 月，作者們踏上敘事學習之旅。自從遇上敘事實踐，發現原來大家可以用 不一樣的眼光看自己、看他人、看事情及看社會。敘事實踐引領我們以另類視角思索問題的本質，洞察主流論述如何影響人們的生活，從而理解「人本身不是問 題，問題才是問題」。當人不再被問題綑綁時，就能夠活出自己喜歡的樣子，追 尋人生路上無限的可能性。
我們學習將微觀與宏觀的視野整合貫通，然後嘗試在助人工作中實踐。我們帶著好奇心，以平等尊重的態度，與當事人一起尋找生命故事中被遺忘的精彩片段，重新改寫生命劇本。
時光飛逝，轉眼之間三年過去。2013 年 3 月，我們再次相聚，細訴生命的不 同感悟，以文會友，彼此迴響。透過撰寫此書，我們期盼烙下敘事的心靈印記，並持續反思敘事實踐對助人工作與自身生命的價值和意義。本書分享了敘事實踐在作者們的家庭、工作及旅行中帶給我們的啟迪、契機、導向。。。。。。
我們全心全意地將此書呈獻給您，祝福您走在自己想要的生命旅途上。
Book title: 「真。網樂」 從敘事實踐看青少年的「迷網」框外
Editor: The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups、Hong Kong Baptist University - The Centre for Youth Research and Practice
Date of Publication: March 2016 (First Edition)
Publisher: The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups
Summary:
互聯網與創新科技急促發展，為人們生活帶來優化與便捷。網絡的足跡，更遍及日常生活每一角落。然而，伴之而來的，不僅是網絡安全﹑個人私隱﹑網上欺凌等現象，還包括深受「網上沉溺」﹑「網絡成癮」困擾的青少年和家庭。
「沉迷網絡」讓無數家長憂心忡忡，擔心子女缺乏自制，荒廢學業。然而，根據前線青年工作者的觀察，一些受「迷網」問題困擾的青少年，其實潛藏不少正面的特質，如正義感﹑堅毅和承擔等。因此，輔導的目的，便不止於意圖禁制他們的上網行為，而是需要耐心理解他們愛上網的原因，並發掘在上網以外，他們所體驗生活真﹑善﹑美和獨特的一面，讓他們更有積極能量，應付「迷網」對個人產生的影響。
Book title: 攸關青春－青年工作的論述與對話
Editor: Hong Kong Baptist University - The Centre for Youth Research and Practice
Date of Publication: January 2015
Publisher: 紅出版 (圓桌文化)
Summary:
潮流興輕蔑青年？甚至與年青世代為敵？
在香港，有某行政會議成員曾說：「近來，多了人移民，不是因為怕共產黨，而是怕了年輕人……」基本法委員會副主任也說：「點樣放心20年後將香港交俾呢班人去管呢？」另外，有親中工會頭目更說，放棄那些「在政制層面走向極端，用犯法手段破壞法治」的年輕人。在一片懼怕、不放心、放棄年輕人的政治低氣壓下，本書的出版真是有點「不合時宜」。
香港浸會大學青年研究實踐中心的《攸關青春》，旨在分享學者與社工對青少年在文化、理論、政策和實踐各方面的研究成果。雖然年輕人生活在有很多「框架」、限制和挑戰的環境中，但此書讓人從年輕人的角度了解和思考貧窮、權威、疾病、愛與性、甚至是生命和死亡的意義，在回應部分邀請了中、港、台、澳四地的學者、社工及輔導人員加入對文章的迴響、反思和對自身本土工作的一些想法或意見，把反對舊青年研究的種種說法，整合成一套新的青年研究。
本書內容分成三個部分：
文章主題由「身體運用」到「生死教育」再到「青少女墮胎經驗」，以至「精神病患」、「青年貧窮」和「兒童發展基金」，藉著研究工作與對話交流，把主流的、建制的、陳腐的青年研究石頭搬開，查看石頭底下藏了些甚麼。

Summary:
「八十後」不用皮革錢包，只有帆布錢包；
「八十後」長期喝一個品牌的飲料；
「八十後」可以連續飲幾杯橙汁而不願吃一個橙；
以上，究竟是事實還是刻板印象？青年一代如何看待？從事青年工作的社工可以從這些討論中獲得哪些收益？
本書共計十一篇文章，由貧窮、福利、文化、生活到兩性關係及身體，由公領域到私領域，由宏觀至微觀，對青年工作的拓展與多樣化做全面思考與討論，囊括貧窮、福利、失業、婚姻及家庭等重要社會議題，亦直接記錄了年青人的聲音，給青少年提供一個空間來還自己一個公道。編著者希望透過此書，反思青年工作／服務的理念、方向和定位，展開進一步交流與探討。

Summary:
Have you ever met someone or experienced a certain life journey which is haunting you until now?
Crying but wouldn't let it go, regretting yet unable to complete?
'Grateful to meet…', this book is compiled of life stories from our Caritas' service users and existing/ experienced retired staff: all of them have experienced difficulties, sufferings, struggles, or been abandoned, deprived of dignity, loss of confidence. Some of them even got stuck in the desperate abyss of seeing no life meaning. However, since they met Caritas, their life had finally reached the turning point: a new page of their life therefore had been uncovered.
As time went by, people had gradually let go the past. On the contrary, they appreciated those different encounters, which had made them to be unique. It turned out that all of us were able to be 'grateful to meet…'. We now sincerely recommend this warm and encouraging story book to you, to let love pass on.

In the first and second parts of Solid Practice III, we have incorporated contributions from some former Caritas staff, former service trainees or volunteers, and distinguished guest authors from overseas. 6 former staff members shared their fond memories at Caritas, testifying to the special cultural environment that nurtured their professional growth, and their meaningful service to our community in Caritas’ earlier days, in the 70's and 80's.
