I would like to welcome you to the homepage of E-IAAH.

E-IAAH is the regional network for IAAH, a multidisciplinary, non-government organization with a broad focus on youth health. IAAH was established in 1987 and is committed to the principles of youth empowerment in all aspects of its affairs and supports the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989). It is an NGO with “official relations” status with the WHO. It’s goal at present is to become an organization which encourages and fosters National Youth Health organizations. To find out more about IAAH, click on the link on the left. I would encourage all to join this important organisation.

On these pages you will find information on meetings on adolescent health in Europe, national adolescent health organisations in the region, and links to academic and practice networks. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you need more information about adolescent health in Europe.
