Adolescence is a critical developmental period where health determines developmental trajectories and outcomes during adolescence itself, into adulthood and into the next generation. More than half of the global population of adolescents lives in the Asia Pacific region. Yet globally, regionally and indeed locally in Australia, there are major unmet health needs, inadequate investments in responsive systems, and insufficient research and translation capacity in adolescent health.<\/p>

Advancing Adolescent Health in the Asia Pacific: A virtual community to share knowledge and support collaboration<\/em>\u00a0is an opportunity to come together to share knowledge, showcase new findings and\/or research methods with the overarching objective of helping to build capacity in the Asia Pacific region, including Australia, to improve adolescent health and wellbeing.<\/p>

This seminar series aims to provide researchers, policy makers, practitioners, implementers, young advocates \u2013 indeed anyone interested in the health and wellbeing of adolescents \u2013 opportunities to enhance their understanding of adolescent health and wellbeing, with a focus on research.<\/p>

This monthly series is supported by the\u00a0Centre of Research Excellence (CRE) for Driving Global Investment in Adolescent Health.\u00a0<\/em>Funded by the Australian National Health and Medical Research Council, the CRE is focused on defining the health needs of adolescents to deliver research that drives investment in neglected areas of adolescent health including mental health, non-communicable disease risk, injury and violence and substance use. Led by a team at the\u00a0Centre for Adolescent Health<\/a>, Murdoch Children\u2019s Research Institute it brings together leading Australian research groups including the University of Melbourne, Burnet Institute, University of New South Wales, University of South Australia, University of Queensland, and the South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute. These researchers have multiple relationships with academics, policy makers, clinicians and advocates across the Asia Pacific region.
