Resume

Partnerskabsinitiativet har til formål at etablere et gensidigt partnerskab mellem Sex & Samfund og vores ukrainske søsterorganisation WHFP. WHFP arbejder for seksualundervisning i de ukrainske skoler med fokus på forældre og ung-til-ung formidling, men ønsker at arbejde med lærerne for at sikre, at seksualundervisning bliver leveret i skolerne, som lovgivningen foreskriver. Sex & Samfund har solid erfaring med at kapacitetsopbygge civilsamfundsorganisationer og lærere i seksualundervisning også internationalt. Sammen vil vi udvikle et initiativ, der sætter vores respektive styrker i spil herunder vores tilstedeværelse i meningsdannende europæiske netværk. Dette initiativ vil styrke centrale myndigheders viden om seksualundervisning og læreres kompetencer inden for seksualundervisning. I sidste ende vil det bidrage til elevernes kompetencer til at kunne handle på viden om deres seksuelle sundhed.
