“…A paediatric-adult model for mental healthcare is not only developmentally inappropriate but creates a dangerous discontinuity of service at the epicentre of greatest need. Increasing rates of psychopathology occur from puberty through the emerging adult period,3 consistent with the Universities UK report cited by Gunnell and colleagues. From developmental, biological, and socioeconomic perspectives, “adolescence” limits our understanding of current generations of young people with the transition to independent adulthood now continuing until the mid to late 20s 45…”

“…The result: An almost epidemic increase in depression and anxiety among this age cohort. In the US the 12-month prevalence of major depressive episodes (MDE) in adolescents rose from 8.7% in 2005 to 11.3% in 2014 (Mojtabai, Olfson, & Han, 2016). According to the US National Institute of Mental Health, the overall 12-month MDE prevalence for 2015 was even higher at12.5% (19.5 and 5.8% for girls and boys, respectively).…”

This paper discusses how the increased urbanization and technification trends of our time may partly explain the considerable rise in adolescent maladjustment, typically expressed through symptoms of depression and anxiety. The authors argue that if living life increasingly disconnected from the natural world is part of the cause, then reversing, or at least moderating these trends and resultant pathology, must be part of the solution. Evidencebased wilderness therapy approaches have a long history of enabling optimal growth and personal development with adolescents. This article proposes how specific core elements of these often-complex therapeutic outdoor programs can be put to use on a broad scale throughout our communities. We provide examples supporting a three-stage approach to address the deleterious effects of urbanization and technification in adolescents; (1) changing beliefs, (2) education, and (3) planning. Finally we present some practical examples of possible antidote measures.

“…We are facing a dramatic surge in malnutrition such as obesity [17], and in health issues related to air pollution especially in major cities [18]. An increase in the rate of diagnosed depression, especially amongst adolescents and young adults [19] has also been observed. As a positive example, progress in detecting and curing cancers (even as the number of cases increases due to overall longevity) is a demonstration of the beneficial impact of science [20].…”

This paper presents a consensus view on Responsible Innovation by a group of industry practitioners, each with high level management experience in driving innovation from within industrial companies operating in different sectors. The authors argue that, while a substantial body of academic research on Responsible Research & Innovation (RRI) of potential interest now exists, it is failing to have impact in the industrial community, where it is understood to be partially targeted, because many of the concepts, tools and methodologies are not aligned with current industrial practices. This is leading to a misconception as to where industry stands on topics addressed by RRI and difficulties in forwarding a dialogue that is meaningful to both parties. The need to distinguish between processes relating to research and innovation is argued, together with the view that research into RRI should encompass more of the on-going work being carried out in related fields such as the role of companies in society, the debate around Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Corporate Shared Value (CSV), responsible digital innovation, the elements of ethical leadership, sustainable investment policies and work on establishing social impact factors as well as public concerns on innovation. Directions for an alignment of the terminology and concepts are also proposed. This paper is to be viewed as an attempt at bridging perspectives with the aim of finding common ground to develop the field of RRI further so that it provides effective concepts, tools and methodologies to guide industrial innovation towards better societal outcomes.
