About this group
This group is co-convened by Sahana Rao, Guddi Singh and Megan Peng
Building a community of practice focussed on improving the experience and outcomes of children and young people and their families.

Today’s child health challenges are chronic, complex and connected, and social determinants profoundly determine a child and young person’s health status and wellbeing. What role can our paediatrics community play in the health systems of the future to improve the health and wellbeing of all children and young people within the context of their society, environment, school and family?
