Lessons for life: HIV/AIDS and life skills education in schools

This guide is dedicated to those involved with implementing life skills interventions in developing countries (educational policy-makers, head teachers, NGOs, etc). It provides them with the tools they need in this context, such as a broad and client-based needs assessment, information interventions, and effective educational policy interventions to develop and make national-scale life skills education projects/programmes that include sexual behaviour and HIV/AIDS information. The guide offers guidance on how to develop effective and motivating projects, while taking into consideration local knowledge and culture to adapt interventions to specific circumstances.
