Young Socialists Switzerland (German: Jungsozialist*innen Schweiz) or Swiss Socialist Youth (French: Jeunesse socialiste suisse, Italian: Gioventù Socialista Svizzera, Romansh: Giuventetgna Socialista Svizra), colloquially called “Juso”, is a youth organization in Switzerland connected to the Social Democratic Party of Switzerland but legally independent and following a different political course from its mother party. Their positions are often more radical than those of the SP, as they consider themselves a socialist organization, whilst the SP is a more social democratic party.
