'''Youth Development''' means mainly the welfare of the youth by providing them with guidance, education, training and employment. Bracketed within the age-group of 15-30 years, the youth constitute over 30% of the [[Population\|population]] of Bangladesh. However, the National Youth Policy 2017 considers people in the age-group of 18-35 years as youths. Around 70% of this age group lives in rural areas. Youths are a strategic segment of the population and organised youths can bring about critical changes in society.

	In 1991, the youths accounted for 40% of total labour force of the country and the ratio for males was 36.7% and for females 45.8%. The youths being the most energetic, creative, dynamic and innovative segment of the labour force, was not considered in the past as a special group, for which the government could plan employment promotion programmes for sustained development. In 1978, the government of Bangladesh set up a new ministry with the name Ministry of Youth Development, which was later merged with the Ministry of Sports.
