Recommendations
on HIV/AIDS and education in West Africa
The
recommendations of the Senior Experts Conference on HIV/AIDS and
Education in West Africa, organized from 18-23 March in Elmina,
Ghana, are now finalized.
The
conference brought together more than 130 participants from 13 countries
to assess the scope of the pandemic in the region, and the needs
and inadequacies within current national responses as regards the
education sector. The conference was organized by UNESCO and followed
two major UNESCO meetings on HIV/AIDS preventive education for experts
in curriculum development and teacher training in Dakar 1997 and
in Accra 1998.
