Abstract

ACTIVE 1.0 (Active Choices Towards Values and Health) is a community- based intervention targeting adolescents aged 13 to 19 within Malaysia’s low-income urban communities. The primary objective is to cultivate a cohort of teen advocates and peer influencers dedicated to promoting healthy lifestyles. Organized by the Departments of Primary Care at UiTM and UKM, in collaboration with Pejabat Kesihatan Cheras and Pusat Pemerkasaan Remaja (PERKASA) UKM, the program was hosted at the PERMATA Youth Community Centre in PPR Pantai Ria.
