This brief describes the participatory research process we employed with educational authorities in Madagascar to understand their priorities and values - important feedback to build public support for and scale comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) in the public education system in Madagascar.
This brief describes the design and content of Projet Jeune Leader’s multifaceted, pre-service training program - one strategy out of a package of strategies we used and tested - to develop well-equipped, willing, and skilled educators for comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) in Madagascar.
