The Nordic Youth Conference

The Nordic Youth Conference is a conference for youth and young adults between the ages of 15 and 40 from the Nordic region. The purpose is to collectively explore the role of youth in todays society and how they can direct their energies and talents towards service for humanity. It explores topics such as why we are here, the Universal House of Justice as a refuge for all humanity and responding to its call as youth, the sacred mission of youth today, a life of service, reciprocity and mutual support and the concept of detachment.

“In every part of the Nordic region are to be found a multitude of souls, young and old, who yearn for the spiritual values inherent in the Bahá’í teachings, the fountain from which flow enduring happiness and fulfilment.” and “As the Cause of God advances along the path traced out for it by its Divine Author, each stage of the process opens up to a new generation of youth challenges unique to that historical moment. Indeed, you convene at a time of unprecedented opportunity and need.”
