Arctic Youth Dialogue 2025

Youth Together for Arctic Futures is a project that aims to connect Arctic youth to their European peers. By fostering collaboration and mutual learning between Arctic and European youth, the project aims to provide these youth with the necessary knowledge, skills, and opportunities to advocate for policy promoting a peaceful, sustainable and prosperous Arctic future.

A key part of the project are activities integrated with the EU Arctic Forum, Indigenous Peoples’ Dialogue and Arctic Youth Dialogue, which took place 26-27 June 2025 in Kittilä, Finland.
