Sexuality education across the European Union: an overview

There has been little comprehensive mapping of nature of sexuality education that children and young people across the European Union receive. Using sexuality education as a guiding term, this policy memo provides an overview of the existing evidence and research in this area. The memo then draws on a variety of data-collection efforts to summarise the current state-of-play of school-based sexuality education in EU Member States, and gives an indication of the variety of practice that exists for policymakers, decision-makers and practitioners.
