The UN General Assembly launched the Youth Delegates program in 1981, encouraging member states to include youth representatives in their official delegations. This initiative is outlined in several UN resolutions.
In Georgia, the program began in 2012, with implementation led at different times by the Ministry of Sport and Youth Affairs, the Ministry of Education and Science, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Up until 2021, the program was funded by the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture, and Sports, in cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. From 2021 onward, the "Youth Agency" has overseen the program in partnership with the UN Office in Georgia.[1][2]
