商品描述

This book analyses the vulnerability of adolescent girls, which results from cumulative inequalities: gender, lack of education, residential, and poverty. It is based on original analyses of data from the national survey carried out by the National Institute of Statistics and Economic Analysis in collaboration with UNICEF.

The book discusses three main themes. First, the experience of adolescence: access to globalization, via access to TIC (Trusted Internet Connections) and mass media; subjective well-being; smoking and alcohol consumption; child discipline and domestic violence are discussed. Secondly, the book focusses on the beginning of fertile life: child marriage; early pregnancy; prenatal care; birth weight and breastfeeding. HIV/AIDS and sexuality.

The third theme touches on the potential contribution of adolescents to harvesting the demographic dividend: fertility and contraception; postnatal care and vaccination of children; pre-school learning; education andgender; household health vulnerability (water and sanitation). On the basis of the analyses of data, implications regarding concrete policy measures aimed at reducing the vulnerability of adolescents are identified at the end of each chapter.

Through the richness of the analyses and the methodological rigor, this book provides an interesting read to both specialists and non-specialists interested in adolescence and the future of Benin, Africa and beyond.

The [basis of the] English translation of this book from its French original manuscript was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision of the content was done by the author.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書分析了青少女的脆弱性，這是由於累積的不平等所造成的：性別、教育缺乏、居住環境和貧困。該書基於國家統計與經濟分析研究所與聯合國兒童基金會合作進行的全國調查數據的原始分析。

本書討論了三個主要主題。首先，青春期的經歷：通過接觸可信的網際網路連接（TIC）和大眾媒體來接觸全球化；主觀幸福感；吸煙和飲酒；兒童紀律和家庭暴力等議題。其次，本書聚焦於生育生活的開始：童婚；早孕；產前護理；出生體重和母乳餵養；HIV/AIDS和性別。

第三個主題涉及青少年在獲取人口紅利方面的潛在貢獻：生育和避孕；產後護理和兒童疫苗接種；學前學習；教育和性別；家庭健康脆弱性（水和衛生）。根據數據分析，書中在每章結尾識別了旨在減少青少年脆弱性的具體政策措施的含義。

通過豐富的分析和方法論的嚴謹性，本書為對青春期及貝南、非洲及其他地區的未來感興趣的專家和非專家提供了有趣的閱讀體驗。

本書的英文翻譯是基於其法文原稿，並在人工智慧的幫助下完成。隨後，作者對內容進行了人工修訂。
