Climate Action:

We are the Clima Action Working Group!

Peace and Justice:

The Peace and Justice working group at UNYA Aalborg is dedicated to engaging and empowering the youth in Aalborg and surrounding areas to become active contributors to a more peaceful and just society. Our activities are centred around raising awareness, educating, and mobilizing young people to take meaningful action towards building a peaceful and equitable world. We regularly hold volunteer meetings, creating a platform for young individuals to share ideas, collaborate, and plan activities that promote peace and justice in our community. One of our key events was the screening of “5 Broken Cameras”, a thought-provoking documentary that offers insight into the complexities of peace and conflict. This event served as a powerful tool for raising awareness and stimulating discussion among our members.
Engaging the youth: we believe that engaging the youth is crucial for long-lasting change. Our approach includes creating spaces for young people to learn, discuss, and express their views on topics related to peace and justice. Offering opportunities for young people to develop skills in leadership, advocacy, and diplomacy.
