The US and other countries often promoting sexual abstinence as a solution, what is ActionAid’s view?
ActionAid is opposed to health promotion which focuses only on abstinence from sex or seeks only to promote “faithfulness”. Strategies such as abstinence only give partial information which often make women and girls more vulnerable to HIV. Sex education should ensure that young people are empowered to protect themselves from HIV, rather than simply imposing moralistic ideals.
