MELBOURNE (Xinhua): Half of Australian teenagers are projected to experience anxiety or depression by age 20, driven by bullying, poverty and racism, a new study warns.
The study, led by Australia's Burnet Institute, found that school-based initiatives, such as bullying prevention, racism education, and social and emotional learning that build resilience from early childhood, were the most cost-effective and impactful prevention programmes, said a statement from the institute on Monday.
