UNYA Aalborg
For years, UNYA Denmark’s mission to be a place for youth with an interest in the UN had been confined to Copenhagen. That changed when the first branch outside the capital was launched in Aalborg on November 16, 2016.
We are a community for young people interested in international relations, sustainable development, and the work, values, and issues of the United Nations. Based at the International House North Denmark, the United Nations Youth Association Denmark, Aalborg (UNYA DK Aalborg) is an official branch of the United Nations Youth Association Denmark (UNYA DK).
Our current working groups:
- Gender Equality
- Peace, Justice and Security
- Climate Action
- Communication
WHAT WE DO
Workshops & panel discussions
Hosting workshops and discussions on global challenges and the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Community events & collaborations
Organizing community events such as UNYA meets and movie screenings, and collaborations with local organizations.
Youth Engagement
Through our activities, we aim to make global issues more accessible and inspire youth to take action locally and create positive change in their communities.
Meet the Aalborg board
The UNYA Aalborg board is a team of passionate and dedicated young people who share a common goal: to raise awareness about global issues, promote the UN’s values, and create meaningful opportunities for youth engagement in Northern Denmark.
