Young people.
Create. Connect.
Make an impact.
We empower young people through inclusive workshops, creative projects and community engagement — from local action to international opportunities.
Ideas Become Impact
OUR STORY
Created by young people.
For young people.
We are a youth-founded association based in Sweden, bringing young people together through Erasmus+ projects, creative activities, non-formal learning and community initiatives. We create spaces where ideas can turn into action, people from different backgrounds can connect, and young people can discover what they are capable of.
For us, inclusion is more than making room for everyone. It is making sure everyone feels that they have something to contribute. That is why we focus on participation, creativity, connection and empowerment — both locally and through international experiences.
We believe every young person has the capacity to create, connect and make an impact. YIEN is here to help turn that capacity into opportunities, ideas and action.
