Why is this a concern to our community?
- The percentage of non-healthy lifestyle is very high amongst Portuguese teenagers and their context.
- Our society organization is very classic and hierarchical without innovative social vision and difficulties for co-creation.
- Teenagers opinions are poorly valued.
- Teenagers lifestyle are highly influenced by family and school environment.
