The Youth Board of Cyprus was founded in 1994 as a public legal entity pursuant to the Youth Board Law of 1994 (Ν.33 (Ι)/94), which was passed unanimously by the House of Representatives.

Since the beginning of its operation on the 2nd of June 1994, when the first Board of Directors was appointed, the organisation has offered young people multiple opportunities for active participation in social activities in Cyprus and abroad. The primary purpose of YBC, which derives from the Youth Board’s Law, is the essential contribution to youth-policy decision-making, focused on current challenges and with the greatest possible positive impact on young people.
