ÜBER UNS
Chapters
Chapters work in two directions. They organize: public events, workshops, university talks, model world parliaments. And they research: they document where their own government stands on global governance, so the movement knows the ground it is working on. Chapters work on issues, never on candidates or political parties.
Active chapters

United States: World Citizen Clubs
In the US, our chapters take the form of World Citizen Clubs, a school and university-based program co-sponsored by YWF, the World Service Authority, and Citizens for Global Solutions. Clubs give American students a way to advocate for world citizenship, human rights, peace, and global governance on their own campus.
Club founders receive a start-up guide, a sample constitution, brochures, and ongoing support from the three sponsoring organizations. Activities range from speaker events and documentary screenings to cultural celebrations, refugee solidarity drives, and participation in the "I am a World Citizen" campaign. Club members are welcome in the YWF Discord and at YWF online events, so a campus club is also a door into the global network.
Start a Club at your school: Visit worldcitizenclub.org or email info@worldcitizenclub.org.

Most of our organizing happens online first. The YWF Discord is where volunteers coordinate, members meet between events, and the Book Club gets together.

These spaces are open to anyone interested in global governance, whether or not you are a YWF member.
