Youth culture
We transform realities through research
Understanding youth culture serves as the basis for effective youth-focused programs and actions plans. Therefore, our team focuses on:
Innovative and Reliable Studies
Providing a framework for analysis of health-related needs of adolescents and young people living in the country, through participative studies on different aspects of youth culture in the Dominican Republic, including sexual and reproductive rights, access to health services, adolescent lifestyles, toxic habits, potential risk and resilient behaviors, among other related topics.
Stigma-Reduction
Deconstructing social stigma frequently related to diverse youth groups.
Effective Interventions
Involving young leadership in research and intervention activities in different public health areas, to prepare new generations of community leaders for evidence-based analysis and transformation of their own health-related determinants.
