YWCA-YMCA is the world's and Sweden's oldest youth movement.The YMCA was founded in London in 1844 by a young business employee, George Williams. In just a few years the movement became known all over England. The concept spread and soom the YMCA grew in both Europe and the USA. At the World's Exhibition in Paris in 1855 the YMCA's world alliance was formed. The YMCA in Sweden was formed in 1884.  

In 1855, the same year the YMCA's world alliance was founded, the first YWCA was founded by Emma Robarts och Mary Jane Kinnaird in London. Like the YMCA, this movement spread and grew quickly too and in 1894 the YWCA's world alliance was founded. Sweden was one of the four founding countries. The YWCA's world alliance is today one of the biggest women's organisations in the world.
