Active Youth is a Lithuania-based NGO that unites young leaders, thinkers and doers, those who seek change and those who make change. Our goal is to create social, cultural and educational impact for groups and communities in need.
We do it through organising and getting involved in youth mobility/training; as well as improving infrastructure and opportunities around us.
We have a DOPE* mindset for every activity, action, initiative or event we are involved in. *That means we are Dedicated (giving our 100% and then more), Open (working with- and for the public), Positive (looking for opportunities, not problems) and Enthusiastic (striving to improve our surroundings).
Take a look at our projects & insights on the topics we are deeply passionate about.
