The goal of this manual is to train teacher education in HIV/AIDS prevention and care. It is believed that effective education can contribute to the prevention and control of HIV/AIDS; this manual acts as an important tool for achieving this effectiveness.

This material was prepared as part of UNESCO's contribution to the 2004 World AIDS Campaign "Girls, Women, HIV and AIDS", aimed at enhancing capacity of the education system to deal with the impact of the HIV/AIDS on quality education, and quality education's response to it.
