  2. Comprehensive Response to HIV and AIDS - Five essential components • Quality education (including crosscutting principles) • Content, curriculum and learning materials • Educator training and support • Policy, management and systems • Approaches and illustrative entry points

  3. Five Essential Components – Quality education (including crosscutting principles) • Rights-based • Gender responsive • Culturally sensitive • Age specific • Scientifically accurate

  4. Five Essential Components – Content, curriculum and learning materials • Specifically adapted and appropriate for various levels– primary/secondary/tertiary, vocational, formal and nonformal • Focused and tailored to various groups • Develops and sustains prevention knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours covering sexual transmission, drug use including injecting, and other risk factors • Addresses stigma, discrimination, disparity • Includes care, treatment and support

  5. Five Essential Components – Educator training and support • Teacher education, pre- and in-service, including modern and interactive methods • Nonformal educators including youth leaders, religious leaders, traditional healers • Support groups – mentoring, supervision, positive teachers, etc • School and community linkages • Educational support materials

  6. Five Essential Components – Policy, management and systems • Situation analysis/needs assessment • Workplace policies • Planning for human capacity, impact assessment and projection models • Strategic partnerships, including coordination, advocacy and resource mobilisation • Monitoring, evaluation and assessing outcomes

  7. School health Life skills Peer education Counselling and referral Communications and media Teacher education Community-based learning and outreach School feeding Adult education and literacy Greater involvement of people living with HIV and AIDS (GIPA) Five Essential Components – Approaches and illustrative entry points

  8. Comprehensive Education Sector Responses • All of these components need to be in place and working well to ensure optimal success in the response to the epidemic • Coverage, intensity, quality, inclusiveness, impact and sustainability of each of these components are also key

  9. Responses Tailored to Epidemic Type • Low level – prevention education in context of Universal Access--emphasis on harmful effects of stigma and discrimination, respect for human rights, gender dimensions, and support for people living with HIV & AIDS • Concentrated – same as above plus education tailored to needs of learners who are particularly vulnerable to HIV including women and girls • Generalised – all of the above plus expansion of treatment education including support for adherence

  10. Comprehensive Education Sector Responses • Education sector must begin to fulfill its potential as lead partner in national response to HIV and AIDS • No recipe, no “one size fits all” • EDUCAIDS provides a framework to “set the bar” toward which we should and can work to support national responses
