Tunisia-Sex education to be blended into school syllabus at the beginning of 2020

Tunisia will start implementing a sex education curriculum for its elementary and middle school students, making it the only Arab nation to currently do so.
This guide experiment will be executed in 5 primary schools and 10 to 15 secondary schools, divided over 13 governorates, announced Youth Programme Analyst at United Nations Population Olfa Lazreg, Reported the TAP agency.
Lazreg emphasised that sex education will be blended into various topics in Arabic and French in primary schools and civic education and sciences subjects in secondary schools.

Sex education will be proposed from the preliminary year to students aged 5 to 18 years, in eight stages, according to the development of concepts among young people since lessons in the preparatory year are clarified and essentially carry “awareness” information to shield them from “harassment”, Lazreg pointed out.
