One of the most important structural elements of the national development system of Azerbaijan is youth and educational policy. These words of the national leader Heydar Aliyev have the character of a serious program: “We will rely on the strength of the younger generation in governing the state and society, we will make maximum use of their capabilities” (Dövlət idarəçilik nəzəriyyəsi, 2010: 27)
The President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Mr. Ilham Aliyev, has made youth policy one of the priority areas of policy implemented today by the Azerbaijani state.
One of the most important foundations for the survival and development of a nation is the country’s youth and the state’s youth policy. Youth is the support and future of the state and society. Youth is the main driving force of society. Raising healthy and educated youth in society means that the next generation will be healthy. In short, youth play an important role in the development of the state. It should also be noted that youth today occupy a greater place and role in the world than at any time in history.
In our country, much attention is paid to youth policy and youth development. It is for this reason that youth policy occupies a special place in the national development strategy of President Ilham Aliyev.
From the first years of independence, under the leadership and direct initiative of national leader Heydar Aliyev, serious steps were taken in this direction; taking into account the new realities created by the period of independence, the Ministry of Youth and Sports was created in the republic. 1994, to coordinate activities in this area, in February 1996, on February 2, the first Youth Forum was held in our country, on February 2, “Youth Day” was established, the “Golden Book” of young talents, and the “Young Talents Fund” were created. ", work with youth has become systematic and consistent. (Məlikli, 2019: 191)
The state's youth policy creates a powerful incentive for the development of young people, directing them to think not only about the problems of today, but also about the future. This policy significantly activates young people and has a significant impact on the formation of their active civic position. The policy pursued by our state regarding youth is based on deep and high humanistic values. The main goal of such political projects is to create favorable conditions for the spiritual, intellectual and physical development of young people, to help them realize their potential, solve social problems, and ensure the protection of their rights on many issues.
Azerbaijani youth, as the most active part of our society, is becoming the driving force of sustainable development. Structural reforms are being carried out, which are characterized as a new stage in the country’s development, and personnel changes that are adequate to the new challenges. At the new stage, serious responsibility is placed on young people.
