Description

In the field of public health, young people are often spoken for by adults rather than being allowed to speak for themselves. Most research and policy agendas regarding youth health are dominated by adult concerns, which creates a significant gap in understanding. This book addresses that gap by examining health issues through the lens of the young person's perspective. Shucksmith and Hendry use their own research to shift the focus away from adult-centric views. By relocating the discussion to how adolescents actually view their own health, this work helps explain why health educators sometimes struggle to help young people turn health knowledge into real-world action. This text provides necessary recommendations for new initiatives that better reflect the lived experiences of adolescents. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of adolescence and society, offering a fresh look at how to bridge the communication gap between youth and health policy makers.
