Adolescent data

Adolescents aged 10-19 years represent over 16% of the world's population and play a central role in achieving the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. Data on adolescent health are crucial to set priorities, to track trends, and to unpack inequalities for adolescents now, for when they are parents, as well as for their future children.
