Calling all young people to get involved in building a better future for people all around the world.

The first Global Strategy for Women’s and Children’s Health, launched in September 2010, contributed to significant progress worldwide to improve women and children’s health. However, there is still much more to be done and we want to hear from you.

The success of the post-2015 development agenda depends on meeting the development needs of adolescents and youth, who make up one-quarter of the world’s population.
