UN Youth Australia is a national youth-led organisation which seeks to educate and empower young Australians on global issues and foster an understanding of the work of the United Nations, human rights and International relations in young Australians.[1] The organisation is fully operated by volunteers who have left high school and are under the age of 25,[2] over 15,000 young people participate in UN Youth Australia’s programs, activities and events each year.
UN Youth Australia is affiliated with, but is not a division of or run by, the United Nations Association of Australia[3] which has a consultative status with ECOSOC as a member of the World Federation of United Nations Associations. UN Youth also works closely with The Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade on the annual Australian Youth Representative to the United Nations program.[4]
UN Youth is a federated organisation overseen by the Board of Directors which appoint a National Executive, with divisions in each state and territory overseen by independent executives.[5] Each division is run independently and collaborate to organise national events and programs.
