The Centre for Adolescent Health\u2019s Professor Patton (Professor of Adolescent Health Research University of Melbourne and Chair of the Lancet Commission on Adolescent Health and Wellbeing) joined Kristin Brady (Director of FHI 360 Youth Department and USAID YouthPower Action) to discuss perspectives on Positive Youth Development on March 11, hosted by USAID and YouthPower Learning.<\/p>\n

Positive Youth Development (PYD) is a guiding principle of USAID\u2019s Youth in Development Policy.<\/p>\n

Both a philosophy and an approach, it is a paradigm shift in how we understand young people and how we provide youth services.<\/p>\n

But what exactly is PYD? How does it differ from traditional approaches to youth development? In what ways can you integrate PYD strategies into your own youth programming to improve outcomes in academic achievement, workforce readiness, positive health behaviors, increased civic engagement, and violence prevention?<\/p>\n

PYD experts George Patton and Kristin Brady answer these questions and more during this one-hour webinar hosted by USAID YouthPower Learning, a project implemented by Making Cents International.<\/p>\n
