Representatives appointed the Council management and presented the activities planned for 2013 and 2014.

Youth Councils are formed under the regulations of the Law on Youth of FBiH, and represent umbrella youth organisations which represent interests of youth and youth organisations on all government levels. The initiative of the Institute for Youth Development KULT has over the past two years helped establish over 40 municipal councils, and 4 cantonal councils.
