Welcome to the Austro-American Youth Society, the young and vibrant arm of the Austro-American Society (ÖAG). Our mission is to connect youth who share a passion for strengthening the bond between Austria and the United States. Inspired by the ÖAG’s motto of „building bridges,“ we are dedicated to fostering a deeper understanding and collaboration between the two nations through cultural, social, and professional exchanges.

For over 70 years, ÖAG has been a hub for Austrian-American relations, and we carry that legacy forward with a fresh, youth-oriented approach. We provide students and young professionals with opportunities for networking, travelling and through a variety of events and programs tailored to our generation’s interests. These include internships, exchange programs, discussions on current global challenges, cultural and social activities, and much more.

As part of a global community, we encourage open-minded exploration of different cultures, experiences, and ideas. Whether you’re an Austrian student curious about the U.S., or an American living in Austria eager to connect with local culture, the Austro-American Youth Society is your gateway to building lasting relationships and bridging gaps across borders.

Join us, contribute your voice, and be part of a new generation dedicated to building bridges and shaping the future of Austro-American relations!
