摘　　要：青年是从儿童或青少年逐渐被承认作为成年人的一个过渡期。处于儿童期和成年期之间的青年过渡期是一个半依赖期,年轻人试图完成个人的自主性,然而仍依赖他们的父母或国家。这个半依赖期的长短在不同的社会-经济和政治环境下有着巨大的差异。青年发展可以被理解为提高年轻人的地位,赋权年轻人建设他们生活的能力和潜能。积极的青年发展要求一个支持性的环境,且在稳定的政治、法律和经济环境里发展得最好,这种环境允许和鼓励年轻人自由和公开地参与政治和公民生活。青年发展指数是通过对5个领域的年轻人的进步的一个全球性的测量:公民参与、教育、就业和机会、健康和福利、以及政治参与,主要目标是在重要利益相关者之间形成对话,帮助政策制定者识别出干预和改革的优先领域,向年轻人传达信息,为那些需要数据指导他们的投资决策和宣传的人提供事实基础。Youth is a period of transition during which children and adolescents gradually come to be recognised as adults.Falling between childhood and adulthood,it is a period of semi-dependency during which young people try to achieve personal autonomy while still remaining dependent on their parents or the state.The length of periods of dependency varies hugely across socio-economic and political contexts.Youth development can be understood as enhancing the status of young people,empowering them to build on their competencies and capabilities for life.Positive youth development requires a supportive environment and fares best in contexts of political,legal and economic stability that allow and encourage young people to participate freely and openly in political and civic life.The youth development index is a global measure of the progress of young people across five domains：Civic Participation,Education,Employment and Opportunity,Health and Well-being,and Political Participation.Its primary goal is to generate a conversation.
