Young adult travellers are often first-time or inexperienced travellers who may be unaware of potential health and safety risks they may encounter. This session will focus on common behaviors and activities among this special group of travellers, and how a lack of understanding and poor perception of risk can have potentially devastating outcomes for both the traveller and the community.

Objectives:
• Describe the travel patterns of young adult travellers and approach to preparing young adult travellers for international travel.
• Understand various scenarios involving the arrest, detention, and repatriation of young adult travellers.
• Reflect on examples of irresponsible travel and promoting responsible travel in the young adult population.
