Focus Area

Adolescent Health

Often clubbed together with “childhood” or “youthhood”, adolescence as a period of identity and life shaping change and development in the lives of young people is not always recognised in all its nuance. We advocate for and address the distinctive and specific needs of young people during adolescence. We ensure the inclusion of adolescents in programming and policy. Our work addresses the larger development and policy paradigm of adolescent health to ensure the inclusion of adolescents in all their diversity in interventions that address their lives.
