Description
The project goal is to increase access to modern, evidence-based, and age-appropriate comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) and information on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights. The aim of the project is to create reliable, informed, and professionally available content for the website, which will serve as the first contact point for anyone who understands the Slovak language and is interested in SRHR and KVSV. As the project team is located in Bratislava and Košice, the main activity will take place in both cities. One of the activities of the project is the mediation of workshops for teachers and the public. Workshops for students will be facilitated thanks to the partner organization Teach for Slovakia and its partner schools in the Košice, Prešov, Bratislava, and Trenčín self-governing regions. The prevention of gender and domestic-based violence is an agenda rooted in the approach to human rights. Although most of the programmes focus on sexual health (education, advocacy), these activities also include gender awareness education and are fully compatible with the objectives of preventing gender-based and domestic violence. Therefore, a synergistic effect is expected within the portfolio of programmes and activities. Opening up space to prevent DGV should increase interest in sex education activities and vice versa, and also to bring up activities tackling inclusion and empowerment of Roma, vulnerable groups, and minorities and enhance anti-discrimination measures.
