    (71.51kB)  |  08th March 2017

    This pocket card explores how half of all NCDs that present in adulthood – begin early in life, and many behaviours that underlie common NCDs start during adolescence. Children and adolescents living with NCDs or caring for family members with these conditions often reach lower levels of educational attainment and have poorer access to employment opportunities than those without these responsibilities. To maximise adolescents’ and girls’ opportunities, the NCD epidemic must be addressed.
