About the Congress

A consortium of Caribbean and regional partners organized a regional Congress to mobilize greater investment and connect, collaborate and align efforts in the Caribbean for the promotion and protection of the health and well-being of all adolescents and young people. The Caribbean Congress on Adolescent and Youth Health, the first of its kind, was a launch-pad from which advocates, health and social workers, policy-makers, academia, clinicians and young people advocated for improving the health and well-being of youth for the future development of the region.
