Department of Non-Formal Education of the MoEYS - Mainstreaming
HIV/AIDS education in Community Learning Centres courses UNESCO
Phnom Penh Office works with the Interdepartmental Committee for
HIV/AIDS and Drugs of the MoEYS (ICHAD) to develop strategic
plans and annual workplans, and works directly with the
departments of the MoEYS that are ICHAD members to develop
activities planned. Thus, UNESCO Phnom Penh collaborates with
the Department of Non-Formal Education to implement HIV-related
education activities, mainly to integrate HIV education in the
classes and courses of Community Learning Centres (CLCs). The
CLCs, located in some villages in rural areas, offer free
trainings courses to villagers (adults as well as in- or out-of-
school young people). Manuals and game related to HIV prevention
for CLCs and literacy classes have also been developed with the
technical and financial support of UNESCO to guide both trainers
and trainees. - Training Community Learning Centres Directors
