Already in 2007 – in a multilateral process facilitated by GIZ, the Brazilian Ministry of Health, UNAIDS, UNESCO and UNFPA - six countries (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay) jointly agreed to implement the regional south-south cooperation project called “Harmonisation of Public Policies on Sexual Education and HIV/AIDS Prevention in Schools in the MERCOSUL”. The flyer briefly describes the aims of the joint initiative, the implementation process, and achievements.

This publication describes the approaches of four initiatives to address sexual health and HIV in school in different epidemiological contexts in Africa which have been supported by German Development Cooperation.
