城市生活影响城市居民的心理健康，虽然城市提供获得保健、教育和经济收益的机会，但城市环境往往不利于心理健康。随着未来30年城市化进程的加快，居住在城市的儿童和青少年人口将不断增加。塑造影响青年心理健康的城市生活方面可能对青少年的福祉和成人的轨迹产生巨大影响。我们邀请了一个多学科的全球研究人员、从业人员、倡导者和年轻人组成的小组，完成了顺序调查，以确定并优先考虑适合年轻人的心理健康友好型城市的特征。在这里，我们展示了一组按个人、人际、社区、组织、政策和环境干预领域进行排序的特征陈述。个人发展的生活技能，重视和接受年轻人的想法和选择，为社会联系、就业和工作保障提供安全的公共空间，将青年投入城市规划和设计，以及解决不利的社会决定因素是各领域的优先事项。我们报告COVID-19造成的不利情况，并将相关行动与这些数据联系起来。我们的研究结果强调了跨部门、多层次干预的必要性，以及对支持青少年心理健康的城市进行包容、公平、参与性设计的必要性。
Urban life shapes the mental health of city dwellers, and although cities provide access to health, education and economic gain, urban environments are often detrimental to mental health,. Increasing urbanization over the next three decades will be accompanied by a growing population of children and adolescents living in cities. Shaping the aspects of urban life that influence youth mental health could have an enormous impact on adolescent well-being and adult trajectories. We invited a multidisciplinary, global group of researchers, practitioners, advocates and young people to complete sequential surveys to identify and prioritize the characteristics of a mental health-friendly city for young people. Here we show a set of ranked characteristic statements, grouped by personal, interpersonal, community, organizational, policy and environmental domains of intervention. Life skills for personal development, valuing and accepting young people’s ideas and choices, providing safe public space for social connection, employment and job security, centring youth input in urban planning and design, and addressing adverse social determinants were priorities by domain. We report the adversities that COVID-19 generated and link relevant actions to these data. Our findings highlight the need for intersectoral, multilevel intervention and for inclusive, equitable, participatory design of cities that support youth mental health.
