This project forms part of the implementation of IPPF’s Adolescent Strategic Objectives. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark (DANIDA) in Dec 2007 funded the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF), central office London to start Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) project in four countries, including Nepal. IPPF is working with Family Planning Association of Nepal (FPAN) on this project since March 2008.
Its focus reflects both the need to promote the important contribution that comprehensive sexuality education makes to health outcomes, as well as counter the numerous religious, moral and other challenges which such education continues to face at national and international levels.
Socio-cultural taboos associated with sex and sexuality are still prevalent in our country. There are no subject specific teachers to teach sexuality education in school. The teachers who are teaching SRH need training and appropriate IEC materials to facilitate such topics. However, there is a growing interest among teachers and students on adolescent SRH and there is an emergence of NGOs working on adolescent SRH in the country. An attempt is being made to introduce CSE, as it goes beyond SRH and considers “the various inter-related power dynamics that influences sexual choices” . 
The project aims to move the sexuality agenda forward and develop a new model that will strengthen the evidence-base and further the global agenda on advocating for Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE). This project is being implemented by FPAN central office and most of the program activities are being implemented in the capital city – Kathmandu for CSE advocacy.
