Street of Youth Association

The Street of Youth Association is a youth organization based in Budapest, Hungary, and composed of Generation Z members, specifically focusing on the challenges, problems, and issues faced by Generation Z youth (18-25 years old youngsters). Our specialty is that we achieve this primarily by focusing on international projects and non-formal education. We believe in the power of non-formal education and in the power of Erasmus+. We understand that Gen Z young people are greatly helped through these project, especially with starting their careers, finding their path, and developing their soft skills.

Our members are exclusively Generation Z youth who want to contribute to their own community and support other young people. In the association, both the management and the local programs, as well as the international projects, are carried out by young people, for young people. We believe this is the most effective way to truly make an impact on the lives of other young people, engage with them and have a positive influence on our environment.

We can identify with the fact that this generation has completely different needs and is driven by different topics compared to previous generations.

Accordingly, there are three topics that we prioritize and consider the most important in our organization: the mental health of Gen Z young people; environment protection and sustainability; and the challenges related to the digital world, particularly social media.

We also believe in youth empowerment. It is important to mention that our association operates on a similar principle to a startup: if any of our members have a good idea or a passion project, the Street of Youth Association provides the opportunity and a supportive environment for them to realize it.
