We just concluded the the Global Forum for Adolescents! The world's largest gathering for adolescent well-being took place on 11-12 October and brought together a global community of adolescents, advocates, and leaders for two impactful days of debate, dialogue, and action.
Know more about the outcomes of the GFA below!
The momentum continues!
​
Today, the world has more young people than at any time in history. However, far too many of today's 1.8 billion youth (ages 10-24) are not reaching their full potential due to the failure of current policies and investments to meet their needs.
​
The 1.8 Billion Young People for Change campaign is a bold global movement asking young people what they want for their health and well-being and building demand for decision makers to transform their answers into policies, investments and actions from world leaders.
​
This campaign is organized with the support of PMNCH, the largest global alliance advocating for the health and well-being of women, children, and adolescents, hosted by the World Health Organization. PMNCH, together with its more than 1400 member organizations, is seeking commitments from world leaders that prioritize adolescent health and well-being.
