“I realized that sex is just a part of sexuality.
22-year old

Young people in Nepal are learning about sex
and sexuality, and for many it has been a lifechanging experience.

Family Planning Association of Nepal (FPAN) recently implemented a two-year comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) project, which ensured the integration of comprehensive, gender-sensitive and rights-based sexuality education in the national curriculum.

This project focused on promoting CSE as a means to promote health, while responding to numerous religious, moral and other challenges.

This case study is one of a series of qualitative reviews called 'IPPF Changing lives' which capture the stories of IPPF’s beneficiaries and clients from around the world.

A rapid PEER (participatory ethnographic evaluation and research) approach was used to train project beneficiaries to interview people in their
social network.

These voices provide us with powerful testimonies on lives changed - in some cases, lives saved - and illustrate how IPPF is making a difference.
