Talk about Obama!
It's that time of the American Presidential cycle again when America chooses who shall be President. To celebrate, an American professor, Ken Mayer, will be flying in from Wisconsin to talk about President Barack Obama's first term. He'll be in CDU from 5 o'clock onwards in Red 1.3.01. Come along and listen in to one of America's most renowned political experts!
Fun MUN and Seabreeze
On May 5, UN Youth NT will be the Nightcliff Seabreeze festival, drop in and say hi. Also, it is time to announce Fun MUN, similar to the Model UN debating seen in Territory Conference and Evatt but less serious with an emphasis on the ridiculous and whacky side of international politics! Go to http://nt.unyouth.org.au/fun-mun/ for more information!

Who we are
Welcome to the United Nations Youth Australia Northern Territory Division's (UN Youth NT) website.
UN Youth aims to promote the ideas and works of the United Nations among youth and the general population. Besides promoting the United Nations and its charter, UN Youth encourages young people to become interested and achieve a greater understanding of global issues. As an organisation UN Youth is also commited to to advocating for youth participation in domestic affairs and the democratic process.
UN Youth equips young people with skills in debating, negotiation, leadership, problem solving and an interest in international affairs, all in a fun and supportive environment. By giving young people the space to discuss and debate issues important to them, their peers and community, UN Youth gives voice to young people allowing them to effect change in their community. UN Youth serves dual roles, one as a body to educate, the other as a body to advocate.
