Croatian Youth Network (MMH)

The Croatian Youth Network (CYN) is a national platform connecting youth organizations from every corner of Croatia, because when we stand together, we create real change. CYN is a democratic, inclusive alliance of organizations that have come together voluntarily to champion the rights, interests, and needs of young people. We're diverse by design, bringing together groups with different backgrounds, structures, and priorities, and we respect every member's independence and identity. Everything we do is grounded in equality, solidarity, tolerance, and mutual respect. Young people deserve more than a seat at the table, they deserve to help build it. CYN is recognized nationally and internationally as a trusted advocate for democratic participation, transparency, and openness. Through advocacy, partnerships, and collaboration, we make sure young people aren't just consulted, they're genuinely shaping the decisions that affect their lives. Every decision is made transparently and collectively, no top-down here. We support grassroots youth organizations and connect them to a national level, while building partnerships with civil society, institutions, and public authorities that open real doors for young people. From human rights and minority rights to healthy lifestyles and active citizenship, we take a rights-first approach to everything. At its core, CYN is a space for connection, empowerment, and shared purpose, a network that celebrates young people and everyone working alongside them to build a more just, inclusive, and forward-looking Croatia.
