Description

Unified Young Armenians (UYA) has a vision for a world where there would be no more genocides, a world where human rights trump realpolitik, and a world in which each young man and woman takes it upon himself or herself to serve the collective good. We are here to promote world peace and understanding.

Community activism, civic education, volunteerism, and human rights promotion form the core of the Unified Young Armenians' activities.

UYA provides underserved children with free Armenian history, language, and history classes. Combats hate speech within various communities by educating the public. Promotes awareness of past and present Genocides, especially the Armenian Genocide and the Darfur Genocide.

"Unified Young Armenians" maintains the visual appeal of various public sidewalks and blocks in different municipalities by conducting bi-weekly clean-ups. The Organization hosts various conferences with topics interesting the youth and the general public.
