This is the first book to provide a multidisciplinary and global
overview of evidence-based sexuality education (SE) programs and
practices. Readers are introduced to the fundamentals of creating
effective programs to prepare them to design new or implement
existing programs that promote healthy sexual attitudes and
relationships. Noted contributors from various disciplines
critically evaluate evidence -based programs from around the globe
and through the lifespan. Examples and discussion questions
encourage application of the material. Guidance for those who wish
to design, implement, and evaluate SE programs in various social
contexts is provided. Each chapter follows a consistent structure
so readers can easily compare programs: Learning Goals;
Introduction; Conclusion; Key Points; Discussion Questions; and
Additional Resources. The editor taught human sexuality and family
