Democratic Action For B&NES Youth (DAFBY) is a organisation representing and consisting of young people aged 11 - 18 from Bath and North East Somerset, England. Formed in 2000, it works to improve the lives of young people and support the work of the local members of Youth Parliament.

DAFBY is one of the most successful youth democracy groups in the UK, and now delivers training and consultations for other organisations. It was selected as Post 16 Citizenship champion project by the Quality Improvement Agency, and was awarded Outstanding status by Ofsted in a 2008 inspection.

DAFBY is underpinned by article 12 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and consequently DAFBY works closely with the Children's Rights Alliance for England.
