Resume

Pilotprojekt på Thai Nguyen Universitet (TNU) for udvikling af seksualundervisning til 18-24 årige kvinder og mænd. I dag er emnet tabubelagt, seksualundervisning er et frivilligt fag, undervisningsmateriale og -metoder er u-pædagogiske. Samtidig er antallet af uønskede graviditeter blandt 18-24 årige foruroligende højt og voksende. Første projektmål er - gennem aktiv inddragelse af studenter og studenterorganisationer - at udvikle en ny undervisningsmetode og nyt materiale, der tager højde for den virkelighed målgruppen lever i. Andet projektmål er implementeringen af den nye seksualundervisning på TNU. Tredje projektmål er at styrke CGFEDs og TNUs studenter- ungdomsorganisationers legitimitet som målgruppens fortalere i spørgsmål der vedrører seksualpolitik og -undervisning. Herved styrkes samarbejdet mellem det offentlige og civilsamfundet. Udviklingsmålene er en ændret seksualadfærd og øget brug af prævention blandt unge vietnamesere, samt at sikre en fortsat dialog på området mellem myndigheder og unge.
