A coalition of key stakeholders (ministries, young people, CSOs, the United Nations, and others) is coordinating the development of the CEI curriculum in Senegal. The coalition has laid emphasis on a common understanding of CEI, and has organized a series of workshops resulting in the development of an CEI framework (key concepts and learning objectives) based on international standards, taking into account the socio-cultural context, and in line with the technical requirements of the Ministry of National Education.

A CEI programme has been in implementation in Togo since 1987. In addition, in 2009, two ministerial orders institutionalized School Health Education for the Prevention of AIDS and STIs. One hour per week is devoted to this separate lesson in secondary schools. Educational materials have been revised, teacher training launched, and SRH was added a few years later. Different projects have been implemented by partners, but none has been scaled up. A National Programme Against Child Marriage and Teenage Pregnancy 2015-2019 was developed and implemented.
In Nigeria, young people’s health education is delivered through the Family Life and HIV Education programme, which has been integrated across various subjects since 2004. This approach is part of a broader set of national policies covering child rights, adolescent health, gender equality and school safety. The content is incorporated into subjects such as science, home economics, civic education and physical education, with particular attention given to teacher training and the provision of guides and teaching resources adapted to different levels of education.
