One of the most significant elements of the Nordic Baltic Youth Summit is its focus on policy recommendations. Participants will not simply attend discussions. They will have an opportunity to contribute ideas and perspectives that can be transformed into recommendations for national decision-makers.
The Nordic Baltic Youth Summit 2026 offers a unique opportunity for young changemakers from the Nordic and Baltic region to engage in policy discussions, build international networks, and contribute to recommendations for national decision-makers. The five themes—AI, security, mental health, democracy, and radicalisation—reflect the most pressing challenges facing young people today.
