Right to health of adolescents 2016, para. 56
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- In order to ensure the relevance and efficacy of interventions, adolescents' experiences, concerns, knowledge and creativity should be utilized in the development, implementation and monitoring of relevant legislation, policies, services and programmes affecting their right to health and development at the school, community, local and national levels. Consultative mechanisms alone are insufficient to fulfil the right to be heard and to be taken seriously. Adolescents must be afforded safe spaces with opportunities to identify for themselves issues of most concern to them and to enable them to act on those concerns. Particular attention should be paid to adolescents with disabilities, who must be provided with disability and age-appropriate assistance to realize this right.
