United Nations Youth Association(UNYA) Denmark

UNYA Copenhagen is a volunteer-driven youth organization dedicated to empowering young people to engage with global challenges through the lens of the United Nations’ values and the Sustainable Development Goals. We create an inclusive platform where students and young professionals can learn, collaborate, and take action on issues like climate change, social inequality, peacebuilding, and innovation. We are addressing a clear and growing problem i.e. the disconnect between youth and global institutions. Many young people in Denmark care deeply about sustainability and justice but find it difficult to access meaningful opportunities to participate in international dialogue or contribute to real-world impact. This gap leaves motivated individuals without a channel to apply their energy, creativity, and ideas, while institutions miss out on fresh perspectives and engagement from the very generation that will inherit the future. UNYA Copenhagen bridges this divide by turning global ideals into local action. We organize interactive events, workshops, and panel discussions that make complex global topics accessible and relevant. Our activities are co-created by volunteers from diverse academic and cultural backgrounds who bring their own insights to the table. Through collaboration with universities, NGOs, and public institutions, we connect youth directly with experts and decision-makers, fostering a sense of shared responsibility and agency. What makes UNYA Copenhagen unique is our grassroots approach. We are not just an organization — we are a community that thrives on collective energy and creativity. Every project is designed by young people for young people, ensuring authenticity, inclusivity, and long-term motivation. Our strength lies in our diversity and the genuine commitment of our volunteers, who bring the UN’s global mission to life in a way that feels personal and actionable. The motivation behind UNYA Copenhagen is simple: we believe that youth engagement should not be limited to classrooms or conferences but should become a lived experience. We started this initiative because we wanted to make international dialogue tangible, local, and inspiring. Our team members share a passion for learning, community-building, and positive change — values that drive us to dedicate our time to building something meaningful together. Today, UNYA Copenhagen continues to grow as a platform where ideas turn into impact. We are seeking motivated individuals who want to gain experience in leadership, communication, and project management while contributing to a global cause. By joining The Hub’s Community Program, we hope to reach more passionate volunteers who want to be part of a dynamic network that connects Copenhagen’s youth with the world.

Plus-Plus

Plus-Plus is on a journey to Inspire creative minds through open-ended play. We want to engage with consumers around the world through timeless products that encourage creativity. One important step in this journey has been to launch our DTC webshop that should be a platform for inspiration and the possibility to purchase our entire assortment. We have a small but very dedicated team but we realize that we need more resources to boost this journey even further. Plus-Plus was developed in the eighties in Holbæk, Denmark. The idea was to create a simplistic toy that would spark the imagination and creativity of children of all ages. The educational market immediately saw the potential in Plus-Plus and supported the idea of simplicity and open play in schools and kindergartens. Today, Plus-Plus is internationally recognized as a high-quality toy brand and the winner of multiple product awards. We are proud of our Danish heritage, and we continue to produce Plus-Plus at our factory in Holbæk. In 2012 we opened US sales offices in South Carolina and Ohio, and Plus-Plus is currently distributed in more than 40 countries around the world. Plus-Plus is a socially and environmentally responsible company. We work with non-profit organizations to support hospitalized children, and our factory and headquarters run on 100% green energy from wind power. All products and packaging are 100% recyclable.

Ento

Our mission is to make it easy and cost-effective to monitor and optimise the energy consumption of every building. By combining millions of data points and the power of artificial intelligence, our system is capable of gaining deep insights into your buildings’ energy performance. We create a structured plan to save energy – the smart way. Did you know that building operations contribute to about 28% of global greenhouse gas emissions? Unfortunately, the current energy optimisation processes are slow and expensive. Using data and machine learning we can solve many of the inefficient steps in the process, including robust identification, prioritisation, collaboration, verification and monitoring of energy optimisation efforts. We currently cover over 18,000 buildings and have helped save more than 6,000 tons of CO2. Our team consists of 15 members spread across 4 countries, with our headquarters located in Denmark (Aarhus and Copenhagen). We also have active sales efforts in DK, Nordics, and the UK.
