HIV and AIDS

Good Policy and Practice in HIV & AIDS and Education – Booklets 1, 2, 3 (2nd editions) and 4, 5, & 6 (new)

The booklets are the first in a series of publications that address good policy and practice in HIV & AIDS and education.

Good Policy and Practice in HIV & AIDS and Education – Booklets 1, 2, 3 (2nd editions) and 4, 5, & 6 (new)

The booklets are intended for a wide audience and are based on a review of published and unpublished literature, programme activities (undertaken primarily but not exclusively by UNESCO) and case studies. They aim to highlight issues and lessons learned from HIV and AIDS programme implementation by the education sector and suggest policy and programming strategies and actions in less developed countries.

It should be noted that the review found few examples of HIV and AIDS programmes or initiatives that have been rigorously evaluated and very little documentation of experience in non-formal settings. As such, the booklets are a work-in-progress. UNESCO welcomes comments, suggestions and examples of good practice in policy and programming to include in future editions.
