Founded in 2005 by Belgrade students, World Youth Wave (WYW) is a Serbian non-profit, empowering young people to connect and contribute globally. Our mission centers around fostering cooperation and development through intercultural exchange. WYW provides workshops and educational programs that equip young people with skills and knowledge, while also offering opportunities to share their ideas and connect with peers worldwide.

Our key activity is the annual International Student Week in Belgrade, a festival that gathers over 200 international students for workshops on social issues. Additionally, WYW organizes volunteer fairs, mental health events, and various other projects, all geared towards youth development and global engagement.
