Many thanks Ana Michelle for sharing this important and significant report. Indeed, there is a lot to take in. The executive summary makes a case for the urgency: > In today’s disorienting and complex global landscape, young people are navigating unprecedented challenges—shaped by economic instability, climate emergencies, social injustices, and the pervasive influence of digital culture—that profoundly impact young people’s mental health and well-being. This flagship calls for a holistic, community- centered approach that affirms youth agency and supports their well-being as they navigate present challenges and shape a more just, sustainable future. I’m curious how the Youth Mental Health & Well-being Ecosystem Model described and illustrated in the report is put to use. ![Schematic model for an Ecosystem approach with interconnected nodes such as Education, Peace, Climate, Housing, Governance, etc inside a circle with 2 nodes of Care Connectiuon Comunity plus Universal Health Coverage/Human Rights/SDGs](https://connect.oeglobal.org/uploads/default/original/2X/a/a0b34a1e57749d3f3a70547eb46af394151e91d8.jpeg) Paging @Strable this too might have a place [in the open discussion of approaches of lifelong learning](https://connect.oeglobal.org/t/on-lifelong-learning-and-open-education-in-japan/9380/)?? --- _[View the full topic](https://connect.oeglobal.org/t/almafuertelab-in-the-united-nations-annual-report-on-youth-mental-health/9446)._
