00:00The National Institutes of Health, Institute of Clinical Epidemiology, which currently I'm directing and where the health promotion program is under, is privileged to collaborate with the Alliance of Health Policy and Systems Research, the Department of Health, the Department of Education, and all the other government agencies, local implementers, and civil society partners that I've called out in this collective effort to address
00:30adolescent health. Adolescence is a unique stage in human development where rapid physical, cognitive, and psychosocial development happens.
00:46So to grow and develop in good health, the adolescents need information including age-appropriate, comprehensive sexuality education, opportunities to develop life skills, health services that are acceptable, appropriate, effective, and safe.
01:08Meron bang adolescents dito? Or lahat? Ah, yan. Meron. So may representation. Dapat may representation ng adolescent population, I think, in this form.
01:21So this project of Flipped Adolescence enhancing community HPV immunization for Filipino adolescents through health policy and systems research is one opportunity to promote healthy behaviors and preventive services for our adolescents.
01:42Through this initiative, through this initiative, I look forward to the community-level factors influencing HPV vaccination update among Filipino adolescents that will be identified as you go through your panel discussion.
02:01I look forward also to the practical systems-informed solutions that will be developed to promote equitable access to the HPV vaccine.
