We are a team of Ubuntu users under or around 21 years of age. As well as being the most dedicated, Ubuntu Youth is the largest youth-based team of Ubuntu users. We strive to prove that you don't need to be a geek to be able to run Ubuntu, or any flavor of Linux. It just takes a bit of dedication.

The Ubuntu Youth Team is in place to welcome new, youthful people to the Ubuntu community. We teach them the basics of using IRC, the Wiki, Launchpad and answer any questions they might have to resolve issues they have with Ubuntu. Once they are happy with their knowledge of Ubuntu they will then, hopefully, start helping other newcomers out. It's a cycle which connects young people and helps them to learn, socialise and teach.
