YPAN is active from local to international levels. At the national level members are running different projects linked to human rights and peacebuilding aiming to raise awareness on human rights, its violations, instruments, and mechanisms of its protection.
Various human rights issues have been addressed in the local initiatives, such as recovering from armed conflict, discrimination and social exclusion, human rights violations of Roma communities, nationalism and xenophobia, hate speech, intercultural dialogue, minorities’ rights and violence against women.
At the international level we are organizing educational activities, these have included:
