Stellar activity studies are used for information on the early Sun and its environment, and for estimating activity effects on the young solar nebula. Large scale active structures are diagnosed from their rotational modulation signature, and reconstructed in three dimensions, using topographic or Doppler imaging techniques. Young stars undergo violent flares associated with coronal mass ejections leading to mass loss rates that can affect the stellar environment and stellar evolution. Young stars show large coronal condensations, magnetically linked with the stellar surface, that can be destabilized by energetic flares. From a joint ESA/AAT/IUE campaign, masses of such circumstellar clouds around the young star AB Doradus are estimated. These studies allow the problems of the link between circumstellar structures and magnetic activity and the role of mass ejections and flares in the context of mass loss and angular momentum braking in young stars, and early stellar evolution to be addressed.
