Educate. Empower. Repeat.
We are a global network of young changemakers. Join us in promoting equal rights and active citizenship, and building a future free of discrimination, prejudice and injustice.
Inspired by Anne Frank’s diary and life story, our work connects young people, providing us all with the tools to take action and realize our own projects to create meaningful social change. The Anne Frank Youth Network is an initiative developed by the Anne Frank House.
"How wonderful is it that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world."
- Anne Frank, 1944
Meet the members
Get to know Keyci, Amjad and Milica, three AFYN members who channel Anne's legacy into shaping the world around them.
Keyci Campos Mesén
Costa Rica
"The cultural exchange, ideas and actions in each meeting is incredible, without a doubt it is one of my favorite things, because many times we need the opinion of people who live in contexts different from ours."
Amjad
From Syria, now living in the Netherlands
"When I joined the AFYN, I was new in the Netherlands, and it was my very first time participating in a group with Dutch youth. It was one of the best experiences, as I found a place where I felt safe and welcome like never before."
Milica Petrušová
Slovakia
"Ever since I finished guiding the exhibitions, I wanted to do more. I feel like especially young people can give so much to the world, they just need a little push and someone who believes in them."
