The Australian Young Greens (commonly referred to as the Young Greens) is a federation of Young Greens groups from each Australian greens party. Collectively, they form the youth wing of the Australian Greens, representing members aged 31 and under.

The group is underpinned by the four Greens pillars of ecological sustainability, social justice, grassroots democracy, and peace and non-violence.

Notable members of the Young Greens include Jordon Steele-John and Stephen Bates, two of the youngest members of the Australian Parliament when they were elected (aged 23 and 28 respectively).
