The journey towards comprehensive sexuality education: global status report admin Thu, 11/11/2021 - 19:25

Drawing on multiple data sources, this Global Status Report provides a snapshot of how countries are advancing on their journeys towards school-based comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) across the world. CSE is central to children and young people’s well-being, equipping them with the knowledge and skills they need to make healthy and responsible choices in their lives. This body of work assesses a range of factors to paint a picture of the global status of CSE, including laws and policies, coverage, curricula, delivery and enabling environment. It includes case studies and data at the regional and national levels as well as specific lessons learned.

HIV and STI Testing and Treatment Policies admin Mon, 02/15/2021 - 16:53

This briefing paper explores sex workers' experiences of HIV and STI testing and treatment programmes from a global perspective. Sex workers are rarely included in the development and implementation of programming. Programming that does exist often violates the rights of sex workers. Through case studies and interviews, this briefing paper demonstrates there is a need for greater investment in appropriate, high-quality, rights-based services, and research led by sex workers in order to meet the specific needs of this population.

Improving men’s uptake of HIV testing and linkage to services

Improving men’s uptake of HIV testing and linkage to services admin Fri, 02/05/2021 - 12:31

In 2019 an estimated 7.2 million people, 19% of all those with HIV, were undiagnosed. Men in high HIV burden settings and men from key populations are consistently less likely to know their HIV status than women. WHO recommends a strategic mix of differentiated HIV testing services (HTS) approaches to reach men and link them to appropriate prevention and treatment services.

This policy brief highlights WHO-recommended HTS approaches that programmes can introduce or scale up now to optimize the uptake of HTS among men. The brief also summarizes a package of post-test services for men. HTS can link men to these services as appropriate for their test results.
