Improving the mental health and wellbeing of young people is a global priority.
Approximately 80% of the population will experience mental ill-health at some point in their
life. 75% of mental disorders begin before the age of 25. Mental ill-health changes the course
of young people's lives. .... It can also cut lives short through an increased risk of dying by
suicide, treatment side effects, and higher rates of chronic physical health conditions. Good-
quality, impactful research is essential to helping young people cope with mental health
challenges. Young people with lived experience should be integral partners in designing,
implementing and translating this research.
Expertise based on experience matters. Young people who experience mental health
challenges can provide unique insights that others do not have. Through roles such as youth
advisors and peer researchers, they can put that knowledge to use. They are best placed to make
a participant information and consent form meaningful and comprehensible for people their
age. They can advise whether an intervention is appealing and practical. In doing this, they
should consider time and resource investment in development and testing. Involving people
with lived experience in research helps to improve funding success, recruitment rates and
research outcomes. Across the research cycle, young people can increase the chance of research
making a real difference.
Young people with the most relevant experience should be offered opportunities. Typically,
youth partners are not able to speak on behalf of all young people. However, it is important to
ensure that they have experiences that are relevant to the research area. Someone who has
experienced suicidal ideation cannot necessarily speak to the needs of young people who hear
voices. Representation of other intersecting experiences and contexts matters too. These may
include experiences of voluntary versus involuntary treatment, genders and sexualities, and
socioeconomic backgrounds.

What is your small business search engine optimization (SEO) strategy? If you are like the
many small business owners, you may be wondering how you can leverage the power of social
media and online marketing to get ahead. In fact, only about 27 percent of small businesses
have a current SEO plan. When you combine that, surprisingly low figure with fact that only
about 40 percent of marketers are using mobile marketing tactics. It is easy to see how sound
search engine optimization practices could help you get a leg up on the competition.
Small business owners are an incredibly diverse group of people who know a lot about
their chosen fields. Slightly, less than half of all small businesses have more than one owner.
Sixty percent of small business owners have worked in their industry for more than 20 years.
That is a lot of total combined experience. These owners are always looking for new ways to
connect to their customers and clients and grow their businesses.
About 63 percent of small businesses find that social media is a good way to increase
customer loyalty, and 27 percent plan to increase their investment in social media. When it
comes to the impact of social media, 40 percent of small businesses find it helpful for customer
reviews. 30 percent find it useful for correcting problems brought up by customers. 18 percent
find that it gives them a chance to defend against negative publicity. Finally, only 5 percent
feel that social media has hurt their image more than helped. If used correctly, it is clear that
social media generally has an overall positive effect on small businesses.
If your small business is one of the 52 percent that plan to increase their SEO budget , it is
important to make the most of your investment by implementing a sound small business SEO
plan . You can do that with the assistance of an SEO company with lots of experience in
managing successful small business SEO campaigns.
