Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite submissions for this Special Issue of Youth. In recent decades of intensifying crises, from unprecedented pandemics and economic upheaval to more frequent and severe environmental disasters, the health and wellbeing of young people have been significantly challenged. Promoting the resilience of youth has never been as critical as it is now. Finding ways to proactively support young people necessitates an in-depth investigation of the pressure points and facilitators determining a good life.
This Special Issue aims to publish a series of articles that collectively highlight innovative ways to promote resilience, wellbeing and mental health among young people in the global context.
The issue invites contributions from researchers and practitioners around the globe in fields including, but not limited to, sociology, public health, health promotion, youth studies, psychology and leisure studies. We welcome original research with various designs and methodologies as well as review articles (e.g., systematic style reviews). This Special Issue welcomes submissions of intervention/evaluation research articles. It seeks to capture perspectives and insights from diverse contexts and disciplines, and thus, particularly encourages interdisciplinary studies and those conducted in less industrialized settings.
