History of Youth Week!
Published by Youth WeekYouth week started in 1995 with a handful of youth focused events scattered around Canada. Since then countries all around the world have adopted Youth Week.
Youth Week spread to New Zealand in the late 1990's. The New Zealand Association for Adolescent Health and Development with the support of the Ministry of Youth Development (and formerly Youth Affairs) has developed Youth Week since.
