In Western contexts, curricular-based positive youth development programs have been designed to promote and nurture the potentials and competencies in young people. However, few related attempts have been carried out in the Chinese context. This Special Issue "Implementing Positive Youth Development Programmes" looks at implementation of the Project P.A.T.H.S. across in variety of scenarios each presenting their own challenges in the context of Chinese culture.
