The University of Strathclyde, Kamuzu University of Health Sciences and the Malawi University of Business and Applied Sciences are working on a new NIHR-funded project to improve adolescent health and wellbeing in Malawi.

The Global Health Research Group will work with adolescents, family and community members, health workers, policy makers, and other organisations to design, implement and evaluate approaches to improving adolescent health and wellbeing.

This four-year project seeks to understand the psychological, sociocultural, socioeconomic, educational, political and geographical contexts which influence adolescent health and wellbeing, and to explore how interventions and policies can best support adolescent health and wellbeing in the future.
