Description

This is the first Youth and Adolescent Health Policy for Papua New Guinea (PNG). Much work needs to be done in establishing an understanding of the need for such a policy. This policy's first intent is to build awareness amongst sectors within and outside of government, of the vulnerabilities of this critical population group upon which the future health and prosperity of the country depend. the second intent is to set out a range of strategies that will establish a Youth and Adolescent Health infrastructure through which the policy can be implemented.
