On June 25, 2021 President Alexander Lukashenko signed a decree according to which the holiday was renamed from the Youth Day to the Youth and Students' Day. Such a change contributes to improving the status of students and their role in the socio-political life of Belarus. Also, the shift of emphasis in the name of the holiday helps to unite student and working youth on the basis of the best traditions of continuity of youth movements.

Our library contains documents about youth of Belarus. In the Statistical review for the Youth and Students' Day, which was prepared by Belstat and released in 2022, you will find information about the number of young people aged 14 to 30 years, their use of information and communication technologies, etc.

In the collection "Statistical materials on education in the Republic of Belarus" you can get acquainted with bulletins and compilations characterizing the development of the education system in the country over the years.

The statistical reference books "Belarus in figures" contain brief information about the socio-economic and demographic situations in the republic. Data on youth as a population group is presented.
