Young Eagles are founded! The Social Democratic Youth Union wanted to be able to create activities for young people between the ages of 12 and 15, and after a period of planning, Unga Örnar's first leadership was appointed on November 7, 1931. Unga Örnar's roots are in the storytime movement, which had activities for workers' children. The idea was to do democratic nurturing work for the young people, where creativity and independent thinking could be strengthened. Unga Örnar's symbol became a flying eagle, which stood for freedom.

Unga Örnar has a strong collaboration with ABF. When Unga Örnar was going to stand on its own two feet, we soon got an inspector from ABF - and we had one until 1954. Since 1937, we have been members of ABF. Since 1957, there has been a representative from ABF on the Young Eagles' association board. The eagles had study circle activities early on, where they learned more about, among other things, health care and knowledge of associations. The picture comes from Arbetarbladet Gävle.

From the start until the 1960s, people used to wear an "eagle suit", a kind of uniform, in the business. The eagle costume consisted of a blue shirt with an embroidered eagle, a red mustache and a cord that could be green, blue, red or white depending on the wearer's age and function.

During the 1969 congress, the union decided to replace the eagle symbol with the symbol we have today - Four children in a ring. The symbol had already been adopted by the international organization IFM-SEI.

In 1991 Unga Örnar and IFM-SEI organized a "World Camp" at Himmelstalundsfältet in Norrköping. Approximately 9000 people from 52 different countries participated in this giant camp!
