From an age- perspective\, science is a homogeneous field where research is conducted b y adults on children and adolescents\; however\, few include the adolescen t’s perspective\, voice\, or contribution. Recent evidence indicates that there are social conditions that are specific to adolescents that place th em at a health disadvantage. These include conditions such as relative dep rivation\, absolute income inequalities\, living in a single-parent househ old\, being involved in bullying behaviours\, negative body size perceptio ns\, citizenship status\, disability status\, and high smartphone use\, to name a few. Disadvantageous social positions overlap in combinations maki ng adolescent’s experiences and relationship with their health\, unique. A lthough these social positions seem to be individual conditions of concern s\, structural determinants\, social policies\, government ideologies\, an d international actors play prominent roles in social inequalities. When a ddressing social equity and justice\, these adult-governed entities will n eed to consider new and different approaches to achieve healthier\, more e quitable societies.\n\nSpeaker:\n\nNour Hammami\n Assistant Professor\, Chi ld and Youth Studies Trent University Durham\n\nBiography:\n\nNour Hammami currently holds an Assistant Professor position in Child and Youth Studie s at Trent University Durham in Ontario\, Canada.
