<\/p>
The Lancet<\/em>\u00a0is establishing a Standing Commission to continue the work of\u00a0The<\/em>\u00a0Lancet\u00a0<\/em>Commission on Adolescent Health and Wellbeing. The 2016\u00a0Commission report<\/a>\u00a0included recommendations for engaging and partnering with young people as agents for change. Over the past few weeks, we have been working with Dakshitha Wickremarathne and Kikelomo Taiwo-Idowu, our two youth commissioners from the first phase of The Lancet<\/em> Commission, to develop a process to establish a youth network for\u00a0The Lancet<\/em> Standing Commission.<\/p> We are looking for\u00a0SIX\u00a0<\/strong>young health advocates and\/or professionals (18-29 years) from diverse backgrounds, to work with us to\u00a0set up<\/strong>\u00a0a Youth Network for\u00a0The Lancet<\/em>\u00a0Standing Commission. This expression of interest comes with an expectation (funding dependent) that those who set up the Youth Network will also have an ongoing role as a member of the Network.<\/p> Please share this expression of interest (EOI) with your friends, colleagues and networks.<\/p> We hope that you will bring your own networks of young people, have experience with youth participation and youth leadership and an ability to communicate well in English (spoken and written).<\/p> We expect that the majority of successful applicants will be between 18-24 years, however applicants up to 29 years are also encouraged to apply.<\/p> All applicants must have a valid passport with a minimum of 1 year until expiry.<\/p> We are particularly interested in the participation of young health advocates and professionals from low and middle income countries (LMIC). For that reason, priority will be given to applicants with origins from LMICs.<\/p> <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We are looking for six young health advocates and\/or professionals (18-29 years) from diverse backgrounds, to work with us to set up a Youth Network for The Lancet Standing Commission.
