History edit

The All-China Youth Foundation was originally named the All-China Federation of Democratic Youth.[3]: 18–19  It developed because the CCP determined that while it had the Young Communist League to focus on the development of youths deemed politically advanced, it needed a broader-based organization as well.[3]: 18–19  Consequently, it created the All-China Federation of Democratic Youth, which held its first congress in 1949.[3]: 19 

In 1958, the organization was renamed the All-China Youth Federation.[3]: 19
