This needs to be addressed, given that adolescence represents a critical period of the life course during which many factors contributing to lifelong well-being are set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The BMJ, in collaboration with the Partnership for Maternal, Newborn &amp; Child Health (PMNCH), launched the first tranche of a special collection on adolescent well-being, arguing for greater priority to be placed on the needs and well-being of adolescents globally. This BMJ collection examines how the domains of adolescent well-being impact on future outcomes, and how these can be supported and promoted by evidence-based policymaking and programming. Within the collection, the argument is put forward that the world&#8217;s adolescents cannot be supported to reach their full potential without addressing the multidimensional nature of well-being in this group, and by working across sectors such as health and education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read the full collection here:<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmj.com\/adolescent-wellbeing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.bmj.com\/adolescent-wellbeing<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Breaking down silos between health and education to improve adolescent well-being<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the article &#8220;<strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bmj.com\/content\/379\/bmj-2021-067683\" target=\"_blank\">Breaking down silos between health and education to improve adolescent well-being<\/a><\/strong>&#8221; Nicola Gray (co-Chairholder of the UNESCO Chair Global Health &amp; Education) and colleagues examine the mutual reinforcement of adolescent health and education, the challenges of intersectoral working, and the joint investment needed to secure well-being during adolescence, into adult life, and for the next generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-src=\"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Education-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5883 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Education-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Education-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Education-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Education-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Education-373x210.jpg 373w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Education.jpg 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/576;\" \/><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The world&#8217;s 1.2 billion adolescents (young people aged 10-19 years) now represent almost 16% of the world&#8217;s population; yet this group has received limited attention from global agenda-setting initiatives, such &hellip;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":5886,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[55,9,31,52,35],"class_list":["post-5882","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-adolescents","tag-education","tag-health","tag-intersectoral","tag-wellbeing"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5882","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5882"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5882\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5885,"href":"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5882\/revisions\/5885"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5886"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5882"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5882"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/fa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5882"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
