The HIV/AIDS and Education section of the School Health Web Siteprovides information, download documents and links on many aspects of health and nutrition of school-age children. One of the most important areas, that has been increasingly recognized in recent years, is the impact of HIV/AIDS on school-age children and on the Education System in general. Education is one of the most effective preventive approaches against HIV/AIDS and can help ensure that school age children, who have the lowest rates of infection of any age group, can grow up free of infection. The HIV/AIDS and Educationsection of the School Health web gives access to key documentsin this field, including:

• A Sourcebook of HIV/AIDS Prevention Programmes

• Ensuring Education Access for Orphans and Vulnerable Children: A training module

• Education and HIV/AIDS: A Window of Hope

The site also supports and hosts web pages for the Accelerate Initiative: Accelerating the Education Sector Response to HIV/AIDS in Africa. At the request of Ministries of Education in Africa, member agencies of the UNAIDS Interagency Task Team for Education (IATT) established a Working Group to assist countries to ‘Accelerate their Education Sector Response to HIV/AIDS’. This is a multi-partner effort, involving countries, development partners, civil society and the private sector.

Key elements of this activity are sub-regional and national workshops that bring together education, health and AIDS teams to share good practices and develop more effective strategies that result in implementation at the school level. The workshops are a point of entry for dialogue to: promote sectoral leadership; identify gaps in knowledge and build capacity; share information and build networks; strengthen stakeholder coordination; and identify new resources for the sector.

The Accelerate Initiate also supports increased information sharing and network building, with Sub-regional networks and websites for HIV/AIDS and Education being developed in West, East, Central and Lusophone Africa.
