This panel aims to unfold the complexity of the topic ‘reaching the most vulnerable and marginalised young people’ in the area of health by including multiple perspectives from research to policy and practice. The concepts of vulnerability, marginalisation, ‘hard-to-reach’ and ‘left-behind’ are often talked about, but what is actually being done to close the ‘gap’ and ensuring young people’s right to health? The focus of the panel will be on health and rights, but lessons learnt from other sectors will also be harnessed to enrich the conversation. Our side event at the Women Deliver Conference 2019 aims to highlight best practices and challenges through interactive discussions with young people, researchers, policy makers, and project implementers. You will leave this event with new perspectives and tangible solutions on how to close the gap. Panellists:
Moderator: Yemurai Nyoni (CIFF) Convenor: Swiss Agency for Development Cooperation (SDC) Co-organisors: Medicus Mundi Switzerland (MMS), the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute (Swiss TPH) and the University of Glasgow (UoG). Confirmed co-sponsors: The Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (PMNCH), and the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF), Special Programme of Research, Development and Research Training in Human Reproduction (HRP), Batonga Foundation, The PACT and Love Matters India.
