Nordic Youth's Annual Meeting 2025

The Nordic Youth's Annual Meeting (NYAM) is hosted by the Nordic Youth Council.

We offer a fun, inspiring, safe and educational meeting space for youth activists from all over the Nordics. At the NYAM, you will learn different campaigning methods, take part in workshops and lectures, and plan your own activsm. You get to spend four days with other young activists from the Nordic countries and create connections that can last a lifetime.

This year, the Nordic happen will be arranged in cooperation with the organizers behind the European Youth Meeting, meaning that you will also be meeting young activists from all over Europe!

Sounds great, I want in!

This years theme is how we can keep our activism flame burning in an increasingly authorotarian world!

You will get to:

• Learn methods and skills from other activits
• Discuss how the autoritarian changes are affecting human rights in various ways
• Meet, ask questions and learn from people with lived experience and experts in the field.
• Plan your activism: Create an activism stunt that can be carried out in all countries simultaneously after returning home.

Costs and details:

Transport, food and lodging is covered by Amnesty, but you will pay a NOK 500 participation fee.
