It is now time to emphasize health and development in middle childhood and adolescence-- developmental phases that are critical to health in adulthood and the next generation. This publication explores the benefits that accrue from sustained and targeted interventions across the first two decades of life. The volume outlines the investment case for effective, costed, and scalable interventions for low-resource settings, emphasizing the cross-sectoral role of education. This evidence base can guide policy makers in prioritizing actions to promote survival, health, cognition, and physical growth throughout childhood and adolescence.--Source other than Library of Congress.Disease control priorities ;v. 8.World Bank e-Library.Health behavior in adolescenceHealth behavior in childrenChildrenHealth and hygieneHealth behavior in adolescence.Health behavior in children.ChildrenHealth and hygiene.613.0433Bundy Donald A.
