- promoting cooperation between cultural societies of national minorities;
- preserving national identity;
- propagating Estonia’s multiculturalness;
- integration into European society.

Since its inception, the Community Viru Noorsoo Areng has been involved in implementing various projects in such spheres as culture, sports, education, integration, youth activities and social issues. We arrange festivals, exhibitions, camps, round table discussions, lectures, seminars, excursions, theatrical performances, concerts, meetings with popular persons, etc.

Every year, we conduct at least forty events both in Estonia and abroad. Members of our organization participate in international projects and programmes in Russia, Latvia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Finland, Ukraine, and other countries.

Viru Noorsoo Areng has close cooperation with organizations of the public, private, and third sector. The Community is a member of the EMSL.
