The youth community makes up half of the world's population. With a view to create worldwide awareness about this youth community and to ensure youth participation in development programs, the UN General Assembly on 3 rd November 1978, according to its resolution no. 33/7, declared the years 1981-90 as Youth Decade and 1985 as International Youth Year . Being inspired by sprit of International Youth Year some socially conscious youths of Sitakund Upazilla under Chittagong District of Bangladesh began to motivate and organize the youth community to establish a development organization. In this way on 20 th May 1985 by active initiation of the socially conscious youth, a social development organization called YPSA ( Y oung P ower in S ocial A ction) began its course of participation in the development process.
