Youth Sexuality Education Guide for Jamaica

The Jamaica Family Planning Association launched its book titled “Jamaican Guidelines for Comprehensive Sexuality Education” on Thursday, September 25, 2008 at the Courtleigh Hotel in Kingston, Jamaica.

Sexuality Education for Jamaican Youth

Since getting my hands on a copy I have perused much of its contents and I must say, this is a must get for anyone who is in the business of designing a curriculum for educating young people in Jamaica about sexuality, whether it be in the church, school, workplace, or general community.

I particularly loved its outline of the six core areas of a complete sexual education program and the guidelines provided for those of us who are in the business of educational research and evaluation. This is an excellent resource for lesson planners, curriculum developers, evaluators, researchers, and the average person who wants to understand the rationales behind sexuality education for youth. I will definitely be drawing on this resource in my lobby for improved HIV Prevention services for Jamaican youth.
