A Strategic Approach: HIV & AIDS and Education

This publication offers a strategic vision of the role that education must play in addressing HIV and AIDS. It focuses on decision-makers and practitioners in the education sector, as well as colleagues who work on HIV and AIDS responses in other sectors. It can be used as an advocacy tool to build commitment to the role of education in the HIV and AIDS response and to generate multi-sectoral partnerships for implementation. It identifies key priorities for responding to HIV and AIDS through education, puts forward two central objectives for education responses, and outlines how the response should be tailored to the local epidemiological situation and other factors.
