I understand "contributing to adverse impacts" as "(all these - "missing out on education and social contacts for months, having gone hungry, exposure to violence and abuse...") contributing to adverse impacts". Am I on the right track?

==================
In February, 2020, we published the WHO–UNICEF–Lancet Commission report A future for the world's children?1 The Commission called for a new global movement to put the health and wellbeing of children and adolescents at the centre of national and global efforts to achieve sustainable development. Events have reinforced our message, as children's needs have not been prioritised during the COVID-19 pandemic. In many countries, children and adolescents have missed out on months of education and social contact with peers, gone hungry, missed immunisations, or been exposed to violence or abuse, contributing to adverse impacts on their mental health and wellbeing.
