Sexual education 2010, para. 24
Paragraphe- Paragraph text
- United Nations treaty bodies have viewed the lack of access to sexual and reproductive education as a barrier to compliance with the State's obligation to guarantee the rights to life, health, non-discrimination, education and information. For example, the Human Rights Committee has urged the removal of barriers to access by adolescents to information about safer sex practices, such as condom use. The Committees have also identified sexual education as a means of guaranteeing the right to health as it helps to reduce the maternal mortality, abortion and adolescent pregnancy rates and the prevalence of HIV/AIDS.
