Submit questions for the 'Ask Me Anything' session with young Lithuanians (aged 11 to 17) during the youth futures workshop in Lithuania on the 8th of June. Questions can be on anything about their perspectives on health, on HBSC research or anything that would help improve the HBSC study and its impacts.
To help the young people prepare for this event, we ask that you submit your questions in advance.
The Lithuanian young people who participated in the youth engagement session at the HBSC meeting in Kaunas had a number of questions they wanted to ask you. Please submit your answers by 30th September.
Note: All responses will be anonymous. The answers will be collated and distributed to the young people who took part in the session. Your responses would be appreciated, given the time the young people gave and the valuable contributions that they made.
