Listening to the opinions of adolescents means accessing a new world filled with inspiration and hope. Together with Fondation Botnar, we visited Romania to meet with local adolescents and young refugees from Ukraine. Our conversations were insightful, touching and uplifting at once. The adolescents are part of a unique UNICEF intervention supported by Fondation Botnar: Together, we promote emotional well-being of young people, strengthen prevention and early detection of mental disorders and facilitate referral to support services. By strengthening the public system and facilitating a public-private partnership for development we aim to create a functional model that can be replicated and scaled up at national level and beyond. Thank you Fondation Botnar for the invaluable support and #UNICEF Romania for hosting us!
