In December 2009, the United Nations General Assembly adopted Resolution 64/134 proclaiming the Year commencing this International Youth Day of August 12, 2010, as the International Year of the Youth "considering that it is necessary to disseminate among young people the ideals of peace, respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms, solidarity and dedication to the objectives of progress and development".
