Country Focus<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Colombia, around 25%<\/a> of teenagers face family dysfunction, often rooted in the country’s history of armed conflict, poverty, displacement, and intergenerational trauma. These systemic issues have weakened family structures and contributed to strained relationships, emotional invalidation, poor communication, and in some cases, violence within households. In this context, many young people experience significant mental health challenges, including depression, trauma, self-harm, and suicidal thoughts.

National policies have increasingly recognized the importance of youth mental health and wellbeing, emphasizing the role of families and schools as key environments for support. Programs aimed at promoting nurturing relationships and safe spaces for young people have gained momentum, creating a timely opportunity to test and scale innovative family based solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n
