And we do this after realizing that there is not much literature that analyzes the emotions involved in the visions of the future that awaits them. In methodological terms, we use an international research protocol (applied to young people from Mexico and France) that we developed to collect young people's opinions about themselves and their future, and finally, we present some of the most significant results that have to do with worry and resilience
