The wellbeing of the world's young adults and teens
Self-harm, road accidents, suicide, drugs and HIV/AIDS - some of the main causes of death amongst teenagers and young adults around the world in 2013. These are the tragic findings of a report published in the medical journal The Lancet. Its focus is young people aged 10-24. Newsday's Nomia Iqbal spoke to the report's lead author and chair of the Lancet Commission of Adolescent Health and Wellbeing, Professor George Patton from the University of Melbourne.
