Este documento com a chancela da UNESCO foi publicado no final do ano passado. Tinha-me escapado, até agora!
Recomendo uma leitura atenta do documento, pois ele encerra evidências teóricas e práticas da implementação efetiva de educação para a sexualidade em contexto escolar.
Pode ler-se na conclusão:
Evidence demonstrates clearly that CSE contributes to HIV
prevention, as well as broader SRH and gender equality
outcomes. As such, CSE is a critical enabler within the HIV
response and should therefore form part of any national
HIV response, while education more broadly remains an
important development synergy. UNAIDS has recently cited
comprehensive age-appropriate sexuality education as one of
five key recommendations to fast track the HIV response and
end the AIDS epidemic among young women and girls across
Africa (UNAIDS and African Union, 2015).
Young people themselves are increasingly demanding their
right to sexuality education, as witnessed over the last five
years through a number of calls to action. The development
of International Technical Guidance on Sexuality Education
(2009), the European Standards for Sexuality Education
(2010) and the UNFPA Operational Guidance for Sexuality
Education (2014) have all represented key milestones in
defining CSE and providing support for countries to identify
CSE key components based on the best available evidence.
These technical guides, along with programme support and
engagement from a wide range of stakeholders, have facilitated
the process of implementing, measuring and assessing national
CSE programmes to ensure that they meet agreed international
standards.
The data generated through this situational analysis reflects
the increased political commitment and attention given to
CSE at a global level. The vast majority of countries are now
actively embracing the concept and engaging in the process of
supporting – or strengthening – its implementation at a national
level. This has resulted specifically in ongoing attention to
curricula revision in many countries, integration of CSE into the
national curriculum and the development and roll-out of effective
teacher training.
Continued advocacy and support are required to ensure that
these gains are sustained and to integrate evidence and lessons
– including specifically the need to address gender and rights
within CSE – to strengthen the delivery of CSE in practice. Young
people around the world need comprehensive, age-appropriate
sexuality education to develop their self-esteem and gain the
knowledge and skills to make conscious, healthy and respectful
choices about relationships and sexuality.
