<h2 id="w_about">About</h2>
The April 2012 report, "Progress for Children: A report card on adolescents" provides an overview of the conditions of adolescents throughout the world.' The UNICEF report aims to address the challenges faced by the World's 1.2 billion of adolescents (18% of the world's population), and to determine tools for them to make the most of their lives, issues partly addressed by the [Pagelink infos="Millennium Development Goals"]. Most of the present adolescent community were born after major initiatives such as the Convention of the Rights of the Child and the [Pagelink infos="Millennium Development Goals"] were implemented, yet they still face the same issues as their elders, indicating that the promises of different initiatives have failed to be delivered.

Overall, the report determines key issues that needs to be better addressed by the different stakeholders such as early pregnancy, early marriage and childbearing complications (mostly in Africa), the impact of HIV aids among the world adolescent peoples through transmission by the mothers or the use of non-sterilized needles or the gaps between boys and girls in school enrollment.
