China to conduct youth reproductive health survey for policymaking

China launched a second round of a survey on youth reproductive health Wednesday in a bid to promote the availability of government services and relevant policies.

The survey will be based on a sample of young people aged between 13 and 24 years old nationwide and interviews of people related to youth reproductive health, according to the School of Public Health of Peking University, the survey's organizer.

It is aimed to obtain information on the youths' knowledge, attitudes and behaviors regarding reproductive health, as well as the availability and accessibility of reproductive health services.

"The survey is part of the country's efforts to protect people's full life cycle health," said Meng Qingyue, head of the School of Public Health.
