SYL has a long history of development co-operation and solidarity work. For example until 1993 SYL used to run scholarship programmes for students from developing countries to study in Finland. SYL has had co-operation with many different organisations around the world like SWAPO and ANC.

At the moment SYL co-operates with the association for Maya University Students in Guatemala (AMEU) in running training seminars for Maya students and in Zambia with the Kanyama Youth Programme Trust (KYPT) in running vocational education for young people and especially women.

In Finland SYL has an important role in keeping up a discussion on development issues among the students. SYL is also a member of development organisations such as the Service Centre for Development Co-operation and is e.g. a founding member of the Refugee Advice Centre.
