[UNITED STATES] The Future: Ensuring the health and wellbeing of adolescents and young people worldwide

Closed event - participation only by invitation

https://www.clintonfoundation.org/clinton-global-initiative-september-2023-meeting/

Today's 1.8 billion adolescents and young people are growing up in a world that is dramatically different from previous generations - a world shaped by digitalization, urbanization, and mobility. These changes offer unprecedented opportunities, including access to services and information, learning, employment, and connectivity that fosters and nurtures relationships. However, they also present new challenges, such as the increased risk of depression and anxiety, exposure to (often gender-based) violence and abuse, or experiences of poverty and unhealthy lifestyles, which affect young people's health and wellbeing now, throughout their lives and as parents of future generations. 

In support of the 1.8 Billion Young People for Change campaign, securing the health and wellbeing of today's adolescents and young people requires urgent efforts and deliberate collaboration, investment, and partnership, with a focus on our collective future. Everyone has a role to play.
