Background
The Strategic Partnership Right Here, Right Now addresses the limited respect, protection and the hindered fulfillment of the sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) of young people in 10 countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America and in 1 sub-region, the Caribbean.
The RHRN platform in Nepal consists of 15 civil society organizations, including a host organization, YUWA, which also holds a platform secretariat. The work of the organizations are focused on improving Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) of young people in Nepal.
YUWA is a not for profit, youth run, and youth led organization working to promote youth participation through empowerment and advocacy.
Overview of the function of the post
YUWA is seeking an online course developer on the subject area of Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) to work collaboratively with staff to develop, deliver, and iteratively update the course using educational technology and multimedia production. The primary duties for the position include instructional design, course development, and technology implementation.
Rational
The International Technical Guidance on Sexuality Education (ITGSE) claims that CSE plays a central role in the preparation of young people for a safe, productive, fulfilling life in a world where HIV and AIDS, STIs, GBVs, gender inequality and etc still pose a serious risk to their well being.
However, despite the clear and compelling evidence for the benefits of high-quality, curriculum-based CSE, few children and young people receive preparation for their lives that empowers them to take control and make informed decisions about their sexuality and relationships freely and responsibly. The national curriculum of Nepal also does not reflect the importance of CSE as only a few concepts are covered in the curriculum.
To fill up this gap in knowledge, Right Here Right Now Nepal wants to develop a online course on Comprehensive Sexuality Education through which young people and adults can better understand the concept of CSE as well as develop: accurate and age- appropriate knowledge, attitudes and skills; positive values, including respect for human rights, gender equality and diversity, and, attitudes and skills that contribute to safe, healthy, positive relationships.
With this course we want the audience to understand that, CSE is important as it can help young people reflect on social norms, cultural values and traditional beliefs, in order to better understand and manage their relationships with peers, parents, teachers, other adults and their communities.
Who is the course for?
This course will be designed primarily for young people aged 15-29, but anyone above 15 can enroll for the course.
