Building Resilient Futures: Unlocking the Power of Sport and Physical Activity for Youth Mental Health in the Commonwealth
About this Event

The world faces a youth mental health crisis of historic proportions. Physical activity improves mental health yet 81% of adolescents globally do not meet recommended guidelines.

This side event makes an evidence-based case for sport, physical activity and physical education as strategic pillars of youth mental health policy in action. Join us to provide direct input to World Health Assembly discussions and advance a cohesive commitment that no member state can achieve alone.
