Forumi Rinor i Partisë Demokratike

The Youth Forum of the Democratic Party of Albania (Albanian: Forumi Rinor i Partise Demokratike, abbreviated as FRPD) is the youth wing of the Democratic Party of Albania. Founded in 1990 following the collapse of the communist regime, FRPD in recent times has grown to become one of the largest youth political organisations in the western balkans, with major contributions and influence within the Democratic Party. FRPD is one of the founders of the Youth of European People's Party (YEPP) in 1997, and in 2020, following years of negotiations, managed to become full members of European Democrat Students, the world's largest student political organisation, affiliated with the European People's Party.
