UNFPA started a series of trainings on “Grow Healthy” curriculum. The trainings will be conducted in Kirovohrad, Vinnytsia, Odesa and Mykolaiv. Up to 200 teachers working in the schools in rural areas will be trained in these four regions.

“Grow Healthy” curriculum was designed for the secondary and vocational schools students aged 14 to 17 to develop skills and knowledge among adolescents to practice healthy lifestyles and protect their reproductive health as a basis for successful self-fulfillment, responsible attitudes towards family values, gender equality and future responsible parenthood.

 

UNFPA works on this project in a partnership with the Ministry of Education, Sciences, Youth and Sports of Ukraine.
