Shakti

Welcome to Enable Shakti

Youth and adolescent voices must be at the centre of decision-making processes for their own health and well-being, their empowerment and resilience, their education and skills, and their connection with people and the planet. Enable Shakti is a designated healthy and safe space exclusively for the young adults to enable and empower them towards a healthier lifestyle.

Who are the young adults?

Early Adolescence (10-14) grow less motivated by threats or punishment. Risk-taking increases, and romantic interest rises. Disengagement and boredom often increases, and sleep patterns alter. Middle Adolescence (15-17) are more empathetic as puberty completes. Decision-making capacity reaches adult levels, though decisions tend to be short-term. In addition, self-regulation of emotions grows. Social supports become increasingly important during this period. Late Adolescence (18-19 years) grow resistance to peer pressure. Susceptibility to depression increases. Adolescents become less influenced by fatigue and stress, and improve their impulse control.

Critical age of golden opportunity

The years between 10 and 14 are among the most critical for human development, but one of the most poorly understood.

Enhancing health, well-being and life

Young adults and adolescents should be empowered towards making decisions and take ownership of their health, well-being and life choices.

Inter-generational benefits

Enhancing Adolescent health and wellbeing brings a triple dividend of benefits – benefits for adolescents now, for young people’s future lives, and for the next generation.

Contributing to economic growth

Investing in adolescent wellbeing strengthens the human capital (accumulated knowledge, skills, and health) of a country, and reflects on its wealth, potential for future development, and creates more inclusive societies.
