What Makes Sexuality Education Comprehensive? Exploring the Indian Context.

Abstract

This working paper has been a challenging task and is the result of the time, experience and energy of a number of contributors over the past several years. The study  attempted to be inclusive of different perspectives, tried to understand diverse narratives, and at the same time stay grounded in the facts and realities of a country that has strong and conflicted feelings, attitudes and reactions to sex, sexuality, relationships, changing value systems and Sexuality Education. There are several additional CSO programmes that bring further learning and innovations to implementing SE programmes, and the field would benefit from further contributions to both what works, and also what has not worked, when engaging with young people.
