Youth Health: The Importance of Prevention

Specialists from the "Youth-Friendly Clinic" continue their work focused on raising awareness about health among young people.

This week, as part of the student union's activities at the Odessa National University named after I.I. Mechnikov, interactive group sessions were held addressing HIV prevention, smoking cessation, alcohol consumption, and fostering safe behaviors. At the end of the training, participants created posters on the theme of a healthy lifestyle.

"We must take action to raise a healthy youth, as this is the future of our country. It is crucial to provide the right guidance at the beginning of adulthood and teach young people to take responsibility for their health," emphasized the head of the "Youth-Friendly Clinic," Lyudmila Kucherenko.
