JUF (Jødisk Ungdomsforening) - Norwegian Union of Jewish Youth

JUF aims to be a cultural meeting point for young Norwegian Jews, and works to preserve and develop Norwegian-Jewish culture, identity, language, traditions, and heritage. As Norway’s only Jewish youth union, JUF’s goal is to help young Jews in Norway create secure Jewish identities, social cohesion, and political representation.

JUF considers Jewish Norwegians to be an essential part of both Norwegian society and the Jewish world. Therefore, JUF aims to be a united voice to promote the interests of Jewish youth, contribute to building bridges with the broader community, and combat antisemitism. Additionally, JUF aims to maintain close connections with other Jewish organisations, especially in Europe and the Nordic countries.
