📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Põhja-Tallinn Youth Centre is a modern open youth centre, which offers versatile options for youngsters to spend their free time and expand their knowledge and world view. Youngsters can participate in the activities created by our youth workers or initiate their own. They can help organise events, projects and activities, self-develop and find their interests. It’s a safe place to feel free and join clubs and workshops, do music or photography, cook or do sports. We have great options for participating in e-sports as well as extreme sports. We encourage youngsters own initiative and our principle is to offer open youth work and non-formal education. We also collaborate with schools to offers them options for non-formal education.

The youth center offers various activities for youngsters such as e-sports and other technology-based activities, crafts and creativity, board games, books, extreme sports and gym, gardening, street art, cooking, camping, music and as well as outdoors all neighborhood involving events or festivals. The center mainly works using the open youth work method, and our rooms provide safe space for young people to build their interests and social skills and to support their initiative ideas. The volunteer can be part of youth center's everyday work with connecting to young people and be part of our events and start his/her own activities.
