Sexuality education

The book "Sexuality Education" by Mariana Braga Neves offers a comprehensive analysis of the perceptions of students and teachers regarding sex education in schools. It highlights the importance of educational institutions as spaces for dialogue about sexuality and the challenges faced by young people aged 10 to 24. The work argues that targeted sex education in schools not only raises awareness of sexual issues but also helps reduce risks such as unintended pregnancies and discrimination. By examining an educational center in the Federal District of Brazil, it demonstrates that the implementation of sex education leads to an increase in dialogue between parents and children while simultaneously breaking down prejudices and taboos. The findings show that sex education in schools is effective and can bring about positive changes in the school community.
