YCHECK Phase 2: The effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of adolescent health and well-being check-ups in three African cities

Overview

In Phase 2 we propose to test AHW check ups in practice, and evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, coverage and yield of previously undiagnosed conditions and costs of AHW check ups, linked where necessary, to on-the-spot treatment, counselling or advice and/or supported referral to specialists or long term care. We will also get preliminary information on the impact of the AHW check-ups on health and wellbeing, and whether they can be the basis for forming a ‘digital health club’ for adolescents and youth.
