SOUTH AFRICAN LAUNCH

Our future: a Lancet Commission on adolescent health and wellbeing

Thursday, 29 September 2016, 10:00 – 12:30 SAST

Adolescence is a critical time of formative growth to achieve human potential, a fascinating period of profound physical, psychological, and emotional change. It is a life stage marked by both vulnerability and opportunity. As adolescents develop, they reach for engagement beyond their families, and a greater sense of place in the world. The decisions they make, and habits they form, can determine their health and wellbeing for a lifetime. Investments in adolescent health and wellbeing are therefore critical. They are also key to sustainable development.

Our Future: A Lancet Commission on Adolescent Health and Wellbeing report brings together perspectives from public health, economics, political and social science, behavioural science and neuroscience and provides recommendations for action to protect and promote the health, wellbeing and potential of the largest generation in human history. This launch provides a space to critically reflect on how South Africa is responding to key issues in adolescent health. We look forward to your contributions. Click here to read more about Adolescent Health and Wellbeing in South Africa.

On the day of the launch, Commissioner chair, Prof George Patton and Commissioner, Dr Jane Ferguson appeared on Morning Live on South African television to discuss the Lancet Commission’s report on Adolescent Health and Wellbeing, watch that recording here:
