Child and Adolescent Health

The National Children’s Day focused on the importance of a healthy childhood, and how we need to protect the rights of children to ensure that they can grow into happy, healthy adults. They span measures from the stage of early childhood include such as breastfeeding and low birth weight, to teenage and young adult measures  include such as smoking and sexual health.

The update include  highlights the worrying increase in childhood obesity, the delaying in rates of infant mortality, and an increase in hospital admissions as a result of self-harm. However there are some promising improvements also includes are  reduction in smoking among young people and a decrease in teenage pregnancy. All children and adolescents should have the opportunity to have a secure and healthy transition from childhood to adolescence and from adolescence to adulthood, equipped with the necessary skills and competences to make a positive contribution to their own health and to society.
