When was the International Youth Day established?

1999 12 17.

The appearance of International Youth Day coincided with the blackout of the First Imperialist World War, and the social democratic parties in all countries betrayed the interests of the working class in the name of protecting the bourgeois motherland.

At that time, revolutionary youths from all over the world held an international youth conference in Ruijing in 19 15, and decided to take the first Sunday in September every year as the International Youth Day.

Its great significance lies in calling on revolutionary youth all over the world to stand up resolutely against imperialism, the first inhuman war in which imperialist robbers carved up the world, the rebellion of the Social Democratic Party and all socialist traitors.

Since 19 15 held the first international youth commemorative demonstration in September, the capitalist youth movement in the world has surged like a flood. Revolutionary youth have played an important role in the anti-imperialist war, anti-nationalism and all revolutionary struggles.

1999 12 17 The United Nations General Assembly endorsed the recommendation of the World Conference of Ministers Responsible for Youth Affairs and declared August 12 as International Youth Day.
