This webinar recording explores how young people can be meaningfully engaged in noncommunicable disease prevention, moving beyond consultation towards genuine partnership in health governance and policymaking.
Co-organised with the Slovenian National Institute of Public Health through the EU Health Policy Platform, the webinar brought together speakers from public health, youth advocacy, European health policy and community-based prevention. Contributions highlighted examples from across Europe, including youth engagement at EU level, Young Forum Gastein, youth-led advocacy through the YOURAH Network and Youth Advocacy Committee, the Place Standard Tool for Youth, and meaningful youth participation in health governance and policymaking.
The webinar also included plenary reflections linked to the development of the Joint Statement of the Thematic Network “Youth Chapter on NCD Prevention”.
Please note that the original webinar included interactive breakout room discussions. These discussions have been removed from the recording and are not included in the video.
