🚰Safe drinking-water is crucial to human health & well-being, but around 80% of the 🌐’s population is already experiencing some level of water scarcity.

Rising temperatures increase the risk of drought, extreme heat and water shortages.

#GlobalHealth issues for young people often focus on STIs, drugs & alcohol, teen pregnancy & violence.

They are important, but are these the issues most important to young people? Do youth currently have a voice in global priority setting in youth health?

What do you think?

[Global Youth Health Advocates @_GYHA]

#Youth4Climate shows how powerful young people’s voices can be.

In partnership with young people, it’s time to start preparing our health systems and services for the impact climate change is going to have.

We have a question!

We want to know how disabled young people in different countries answer this question.

If you’re a young person with a disability, tell us what you prefer and where you’re from ✨🌏

There’s lots of stereotypes about young people - we don’t care about politics, we want everything to be an app, young people can’t be responsible for our own health.

What hurtful stereotypes have you come across?

We can't be neutral on inequalities. We must be deliberate & determined in confronting them. The most unrealistic thing to do now is to imagine we can overcome our crises thru minor adjustments or tinkering. Change is never given. It's won.

This is a big reason why we exist. Stories like these aren’t rare. We’re glad to hear he’s out now.

Healthcare must respect the decisions, dignity & human rights of patients.

Together, voices of young people can help make healthcare like this a thing of the past.
