The PANEX-YOUTH Project, a cooperation between Brazil-UK-South Africa, seeks to use an action research to co-create this knowledge about such adaptations and generate wider recommendations, with young people, and the vulnerable communities in which they live, and non-governmental bodies and non-profit organisations that focus on this age group.
