JEF Estonia (Noored Euroopa Föderalistid Eesti) is a non-partisan youth organisation in Estonia that aims to bring together all young people who share a passion for a stronger, united and federal Europe. We work to promote and uphold the values of democracy, the rule of law, peace, human rights, and the freedom of speech and the press. With strong local cooperation in Estonia, we strive to raise civic awareness and engagement among the youth to bring the issues of society to the forefront of public discussion and empower them to take action and be a part of changing society for the better.
We strive to be as inclusive as we can and make the debate of Europe and society approachable to anyone to make sure everyone gets to participate and have a voice. Our work has also included projects with human rights activists from Iran, Belarus and Ukraine, charity drives for the 2023 earthquake victims in Turkey, organisations working for LGBTQ+ rights and people afflicted with HIV, promoting better mental health in society and upholding the human rights and international law in Palestine & Israel.
