The Junge Union (JU) is the youth organization of Germany’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and Christian Social Union (CSU) parties. It targets young people aged 14 to 35, encouraging their participation in politics and fostering future leadership. The JU advocates for conservative values, such as economic stability, family policies, and national interests, while also engaging in discussions on social issues. It serves as a platform for young members to develop political skills, influence party policies, and prepare for active roles in public service or politics.
