About UN Youth

UN Youth Australia is a national youth-led non-profit organisation that empowers young people across Australia as global citizens. Our programs provide environments where young people can build knowledge, develop connections, and find their voice on matters they care about. All our activities are run by young people for young people. 

Each year more than 15,000 young people benefit from UN Youth Australia’s programs, including: Evatt, Australia’s largest model United Nations competition; the Young Diplomat’s Tour across Europe; and a host of local State and Territory conferences. We also work with the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade to deliver the Australian Youth Representative to the United Nations Program.
