Ung.no offers important help and information to young people in Norway
Many young people in Norway may experience challenges in their everyday lives, whether it concerns mental health, school, or their rights. To make it easier to find reliable information, the public sector has established the website Ung.no. This is the official channel for everyone between the ages of 13 and 20 who needs advice or guidance.
The website functions as a digital resource where young people can read articles on many different topics. The goal is to provide safe and quality-assured information that is easy to understand. By gathering knowledge in one place, the authorities want to help young people make good choices and know where to turn when they have questions.
In addition to articles and information, it is important that young people know where they can get emergency help. If you are experiencing a crisis or need medical assistance outside of your GP's opening hours, the emergency medical service (legevakten) is available throughout the country. By calling the phone number 116 117, you will be put directly in contact with the emergency medical service in your area.
It is important that young people in Norway are aware of these services. Whether you need answers to general questions or find yourself in a difficult situation, there is help available. By using Ung.no and knowing which number to call when needed, many can get the support they require in a busy everyday life.
