Youth Bridges Budapest (YBB) is a Hungarian foundation dedicated to empowering young people and strengthening the communities around them. Based in Budapest, we work both locally and internationally to support youth in navigating the challenges of the 21st century - from digitalisation and social inequality to environmental sustainability.
Our diverse team includes experts in education, social sciences, project management, and communication. We work with:
5 core staff members
A network of local and international trainers and volunteers
Collaborators from over 25 EU-funded and international projects
Our mission
We build bridges between individuals, communities, and cultures through inclusive learning experiences, capacity-building, and community engagement. By fostering dialogue, empathy, and active citizenship, we aim to prevent social isolation, promote well-being, and support lifelong learning.
We structure our work around three main topics:
Social equity – tackling inequalities and promoting inclusion
Environmental sustainability – raising awareness and offering green education
Digital transformation – addressing mental health, communication, and digital well-being
YBB combines education, research, and innovation. We often experiment with creative approaches such as:
Art-based learning
Cultural education
Digital and media literacy
Entrepreneurship and participatory approach
We are proud to be an Erasmus+ accredited organisation in the youth field and hold the European Solidarity Corps Quality Label for coordinating and supporting volunteering projects and Humanitarian Aid Volunteering.
