Children and young people need skills and information to protect their sexual and reproductive health and reduce their vulnerability to HIV/AIDS.
Peer education can be a powerful tool in achieving this, but is it always the right approach and if so, how can its impact be increased?
This publication sets out to help project and programme managers answer these questions for their own circumstances.
Effective Peer Education starts by looking at how to judge whether peer education is the right approach. It goes on to look at how to improve the quality of peer education programmes, how to make them more sustainable and how they can link to other child-friendly services. Throughout the manual there are overviews of the issues involved, key questions to consider, participatory activities, lessons learned, case studies and 'dos and don'ts'.
The manual also contains a series of quick guides to 18 possible programming options, from condom distribution to advocacy with national policy makers.
Developed with programme managers, staff, volunteers (including peer educators), and resource people from the fields of education, sexual and reproductive health and HIV and AIDS, this publication will be useful to development workers running or planning to run peer education programmes.
