Innovation for Youth Health

A future where everyone has the opportunity to be healthy is possible. To achieve this, a natural focus is with young people, who make up almost a quarter of the world’s population, and who will help shape and innovate for tomorrow's health and wellbeing.

Join us for an upcoming meeting 'Innovation for Youth Health' hosted in collaboration with the WHO Innovation team, youth health innovators, and a range of other champions for youth health on Monday from 12-1 PM CEST.

During this meeting, attendees will gain an insight into the Reboot Health Winners from 2020 who will be presenting their social innovations, impact, and sharing their learnings to date in conversation with Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, WHO Director-General.
