View knowledge product

The goal of the study was to learn about the experiences, perceptions, and knowledge accessibility of mid-adolescents aged 14 to 17, parents, and teachers aged 28 to 52 years old about school-based comprehensive sexuality education, and to disseminate the findings through a policy brief with infographic data for further advocacy to ensure sexuality education as a universal access mechanism and a better understanding of sexuality education.

In order to determine the baseline situation on comprehensive sexuality education in Burundi, AFPA conducted a baseline study to guide interventions in this area. The survey was conducted in two different settings, namely rural and peri-urban, with a sample of 60 stakeholders.
