2001 FIVB Girls Youth World Championship
The FIVB Volleyball Girls' U19 World Championship is the world championship of volleyball for female players under the age of 19 organized by ''Fédération Internationale de Volleyball'' ( FIVB).

China is the most successful nation in the tournament's history, with four titles and one runner-up. Brazil is the second most successful with three titles and four runners-up. A corresponding tournament for male players is the FIVB Volleyball Boys' U19 World Championship.
