United Nations Youth Associations (UNYAs) are youth-led NGO's entirely consisting of young volunteers. These associations are supporting the goals and principles of the United Nations Charter and it is their aim to promote these principles and the work of the United Nations among their national civil society.
In August 2011, the United Nations Youth Associations Network (UNYANET) was founded in Vienna. UNYANET is the international network for United Nations Youth Associations and UNA-Youth Sections.
If a country doesn’t have an UNYA, youth can get involved with their local United Nations Association (UNA). If someone does not know if their country has a UNA, contact the World Federation of United Nations Associations (WFUNA) Youth Network.
WFUNA is a global nongovernmental nonprofit membership organization of UNAs in over 100 countries. The WFUNA Youth Network is a network of UN Youth Associations and UNA youth sections/youth wings from all around the world.
