As part of #Lancet200, we are inviting essays from young people.

What are the key issues in health facing children and young people now? What issues are important to you and your peers, but neglected by those in positions of power?

Tell us! 👉 https://t.co/1Ll8KJELeh

What do we already know?
We know that a lot of #youngpeople prefer anonymous services, and want clear information on the #mentalhealth help they can get.

We want to tell #researchers how to study #biology and #mentalhealth in young people, and what would make them stay involved. 🧠

[CELEBRATE Project @ProjCelebrate]

Current #mentalhealthresearch lacks the involvement of #youngpeople 🔬🧠. We are here to change that and find out how they can get involved.
