Young People’s Sexual Health

Research shows that young people remain dissatisfied with the sex education they receive.  At the same time, teachers often maintain that they are not equipped to deliver a better standard of sex education due to the lack of information and training.  This workshop addresses these concerns by showcasing latest research and sex education resources, and is specifically designed for sex education providers.  The scene will be set by presenting the latest research findings on young people’s sexual lifestyles in Northern Ireland, and there will be an opportunity for participants to learn more about some of the most innovative sex education resources and providers available - including NCB’s Sex Education Forum, Brook, FPA, GUM clinic nurses, and resources specifically for young men and LGBT people.  The workshop will take place on Tuesday 6th November 2012, from 10.00am - 4.00pm at NCB NI, Albany House, 73-75 Great Victoria Street, Belfast, BT2 7AF.  The workshop is free, but places must be booked in advance by emailing This email address is being protected from spambots.
