Monthly
Next meeting, 15 December 2024
Join our book club with a difference! Every month, we choose a new book to discuss, focusing on books that spark discussions and hopefully teach us something new. Join us and meet like-minded individuals in a casual, friendly and inclusive environment!
This month's book choice is R.F. Kuang's Yellowface. We will meet in person, in central Amsterdam, on 15th December at 2024 (location TBA).

Previous Events
YOUth ACT ART SHOW: UNTOLD STORIES
April 2024
Our annual art show celebrated stories that would otherwise remain tucked away somewhere, alien, in a sea of cookie-cutter and easy to digest stories that are fed to us by mainstream media.
Our aim was to create a space that is safe, warm and vibrant for artists to share real stories, untethered from societal expectations and judgements. Focusing on themes of class, gender, race and sexuality, we wish to amplify the voices of those who don’t often get the mic. YOUth ACT curated and hosted a diverse program of artists, crafts, live music and spoken word.
WE ARE NOT REALLY STRANGERS
December 2023
Based on the card game “We’re not really strangers,” we hosted a networking night to enable young people to have critical and reflective conversations 🌍
YOUth ACT hosted a social and educational event for young people to get to meet new people and play this amazingly curated card game by our community team 🙌🏽
Different cards, different topics, different tables, different conversations each 20 minutes, all in a safe space 💜

Community Building
YOUth ACT empowers young people by creating personal, informal spaces where youth with wide-ranging backgrounds, interests and skills can connect and co-create. In the coming months, our community-building committee will offer you a wide range of opportunities to meet inspiring and enagaged peers. Hopefully, this space will allow you to connect with great, energising people who might want to collaborate for your next project. We look forward to welcoming you into our supportive YOUth ACT family full of deep talks, encouragement and laughter.
Do you have any suggestions around community-building or want to get involved?
