Abstract:
The goal of the project was to gain an understanding of the relationships between secondary school youth experiences in school gardens and their mental well-being. Over the course of five months, sixteen youths participated in a photovoice research project in which they expressed their personal experiences about food and gardening through photography and writing. The aspects of secondary school youths’ life experiences affected by exposure to school gardens and their impact upon their well-being were identified. The youth explicitly associated relaxation with the themes of love and connectedne

Abstract:
In recent times, there has been increasing global concern over the continuously expanded rate of unemployment around the world, particularly in most developing countries, where the youths have been identified as the most affected groups. This is as a result of the government and its stakeholder’s inability to give education the desired attention. Sound education equips youths to challenge the status quo and proffer better alternatives as the way out of the present economic quagmire. It is argued that a new paradigm shift is needed in the area of school curriculum to lead the way to reform pres

In the third year of the Full Implementation Phase, 19 experimental schools (n = 3,006 students) and 24 control schools (n = 3,727 students) participated in a randomized group trial. Analyses based on linear mixed models via SPSS showed that participants in the experimental schools displayed better positive youth development than did participants in the control schools based on

AbstractBully-victim problems at school may have negative effects on students' mental health. Adolescents (N = 845) attending schools in South Australia anonymously answered questionnaires that included a measure of suicidal ideation. Student involvement in bully-victim problems at school and the emotional reaction to being viaimised by peers were also examined. Self-report but not peer nomination indicated that high levels of peer victimisation and relatively ineffective coping responses were independently and significantly associated with suicidal ideation.

The study explored the perceptions of primary school pupils, secondary, and high school students in the Mezam Division of the North West Region of Cameroon. Existing literature points to declining youth interest in agriculture grounded on a largely negative perception of the sector, however, there is scant data on youth perception of agriculture in Cameroon. In the face of rising youth unemployment, there is a need to generate relevant data that can inform policies relating to youth entry and participation in the country’s agriculture.

Abstract:
For the purpose of national development, the contribution of citizens of a country in general, and the contribution of youth, in particular, are of immense importance. The youth of today is full of vigor and vitality. Because of this vagueness and vitality, they accept challenges. To show their best, they can accept any challenges even though it is risky for their life, they think that by taking a risk, they show their talent. During their work period, they have to take risks only one time, and then if their life would be saved better results will be before then.

However, there is concern that today’s youth are more detached from agriculture than ever before, viewing the industry as an unattractive career prospect and possessing low levels of agricultural literacy.
