Your voice matters. That's why AWARE.org spoke to more than 1,100 young South Africans between the ages of 11 and 17 to better understand your experiences, your opinions and what really influences the choices you make.
This research explores how young people think about alcohol, underage drinking and the messages they see every day. More importantly, it asks what kind of conversations, campaigns and role models actually make a difference.
Your experiences and your choices are helping shape programmes that are more relevant and better equipped to help your generation make the right choices.
This is your story. Your future.
