HIV Education for Learners in Zambian Catholic Schools

In this chapter, HIV and AIDS education for learners in Catholic schools was interrogated from a social justice perspective. The author advances the argument that the learners' right to access HIV and AIDS education in the school context was superficial in addressing the needs of learners. Hence, depriving them of the much needed knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary for their survival in the context of HIV and AIDS. Therefore, this call for continued dialogue among different stakeholders in order to enable Catholic Schools play the ‘social vaccine' role in the face of HIV and AIDS.
