NJR / DNYC aims to encourage and support youth participation at all levels of society; ensure that young people know, develop and use their strengths for a better future for themselves and others.

NJR / DNYC encourages young people to show what they are capable of, from their communities to the United Nations.

The NJR / DNYC was given two tasks: stimulating and supporting youth participation and representing and bringing together young people and their organizations.

Through these projects, the NJR / DNYC ensures that young people are empowered, discover their strengths and, based on that, can contribute to society.

These are young people between the ages of 18 and 25 who represent their peers on four themes: Sustainable development, European affairs, Biodiversity & Food and Human rights & security.
