Meretz Youth (Hebrew: נוער מרצ, Noar Meretz) is the youth wing of the Israeli political party Meretz. The organization was founded in 1992, after the union between the Israeli political parties Mapam and Ratz. The first coordinator of Meretz Youth was Ilan Gilon.
Meretz Youth opened branches in Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan, Petah Tikva, Ashdod, Kiryat Ono, Beersheba, Kfar Saba, Hertzliyah, Haifa, Givatayim, Rishon LeZion, Bat Yam, Pardes Hana and Jerusalem. In their branches, the organization combines cultural and political education with political activism.
The organization is presented also in Meretz's management. In the party's constitution, it was told that 2% of the management of the party must come from Meretz Youth.
Today, about 400 students between the ages 12–18 are members of Meretz Youth.
