Young World Federalists
We are a global movement fighting to give humanity a voice in global affairs.
About
We believe that the current system of competitive sovereign countries fails to tackle the global challenges that impact us all. We advocate a new form of global governance, one in which people cooperate to secure their common interest through a democratic world federation.
Founded in 2019, we are part of a movement that goes back nearly a century, and an idea that goes back millennia. We embody the historically broad support for world federalism by welcoming people from across the political spectrum to our movement. While we vigorously debate issues amongst ourselves, we remain united in pursuit of our vision for a better world.
Our Mission
We are a global movement building support for world federalism. To do this, we educate the public and raise awareness, collaborate with like-minded organizations, and mobilize activists and volunteers.
Our Vision
We envision a sustainable, just, and peaceful world through a democratic world federation. A world run by humanity, for humanity, providing equal opportunity to all on a thriving planet.

Our Values
- Big Tent – Our movement builds on our diverse strengths, backgrounds, beliefs, and identities by welcoming everyone who shares our vision of a democratic world federation. We respect different views and encourage constructive criticism and debate.
- Laser Focus – Advocating world federalism is our central focus. We recognize that world federalism has broad implications for nearly every global, regional, national, and local issue, however, our laser focus remains on transforming the system of global governance towards a democratic world federation.
- Unity – We believe we are more effective working together and commit to the diversity, tolerance, and compromise necessary to remain united in pursuit of our common goal. We seek to achieve unity without uniformity and diversity without fragmentation.
- One Humanity – We all share a common human identity and are part of a global community. Every person is entitled to inherent rights, inviolable dignity, and has a responsibility to act in solidarity with humanity.
