The Health Monitor for Young Adults 2022 showed that more than half of young adults experience psychological complaints and a quarter feel very lonely. This research also emphasized the impact of the corona period on young adults. This raises interesting questions about the long-term consequences of corona and the resilience of young adults. The GGDs and RIVM carry out this new measurement with a national online questionnaire survey: the Young Adult Health Monitor 2024.
Health Monitor Young Adults 2024
The Young Adult Health Monitor 2024 is a national online questionnaire survey into the health, well-being and lifestyle of young adults aged 16 to 25 living in the Netherlands. The research is being conducted for the second time this year. The first time was in 2022, the results of which are published in March 2023.
From April 8 to July 7, 2024, young adults throughout the Netherlands can complete the online questionnaire via www.jongerenmonitor.nl. Young adults are reached via various social media and the GGDs. The questionnaire covers various topics, such as physical and mental health, lifestyle, substance use, loneliness and the impact of corona.
Participate in the research
Participants provide information that is important for the government, GGDs and municipalities to make policy and take action to improve the health of young adults. In this way, the Young Adult Health Monitor 2024 contributes to the health and well-being of young adults. That is why it is important that as many young adults as possible participate in the research. Participation in the research is voluntary. The answers will be treated and processed strictly confidentially.
The results
All GGDs in the Netherlands request the Young Adult Health Monitor 2024 in the same way and in the same period. Because all GGDs participate, there will soon be results at national and regional level. This makes it possible to compare results. The results of this questionnaire survey will be available in early 2025.

Of Health Monitor Young Adults 2024 is part of it COVID-19 health research from Network GOR. In it, the RIVM, GGDs, GGD GHOR Netherlands, Nivel and ARQ National Psychotrauma Center map the consequences of the corona period for health.
