International technical guidance on sexuality education

UNESCO

Based on a rigorous and current review of evidence on sexuality education programs, this guide is aimed at decision makers and professionals in the education and health sectors. It has been produced to help education, health, and other relevant authorities develop and implement school-based sexuality education programs and materials. Volume I focuses on the rationale for sexuality education and provides sound technical advice on characteristics of effective programs. A companion document, (Volume II) focuses on the topics and learning objectives to be covered in a "basic minimum package" on sexuality education for children and young people from 5 to 18+ years of age and includes a bibliography of useful resources. The guide is relevant not only to those countries most affected by HIV and AIDS, but also to those facing low prevalence and concentrated epidemics.
