Unge Leve
Every year, thousands of people in Norway are affected when someone they care about takes their own life. Some lose a partner or a friend, others a brother or a mother. Unge LEVE provides a space for young people who have lost someone close to them to suicide. Kavli Trust supports their work in creating national meeting places that focus on the needs of young people.
