ABOUT THIS PROGRAM

Welcome to Learning about Living, www.learningaboutliving.org, the electronic version of FLHE.

Learning about Living, the electronic version of FLHE, is based on the Nigerian Family Life and HIV/AIDS Education (FLHE) curriculum. The program is developed by OneWorld UK and Butterfly Works, in close collaboration with Action Health Incorporated and NERDC; with input from Education as a Vaccine Against Aids (EVA) and Girls’ Power Initiative (GPI); supported by the Federal Ministry of Education, Federal Ministry of Health; and tested with young people, principals and youth workers in Nigeria. Learning about Living contains photographs from Akintunde Bhusayo.

FLHE Curriculum was developed by the NERDC as the National Agency for Curriculum development in the education sector in Nigeria in collaboration with the Universal Basic Education, Federal Ministry of Education and Action Health Incorporated.

This product is used in schools in Lagos State, FCT, Cross River state and Bauchi state and is gradually spreading to schools across Nigeria. It is specifically designed to work on any regular computer plus the One Laptop per Child, Classmate PCs and Government computer programs.
This is the master version 1.4 of Learning about Living, developed in January 2009, including all updates determined in the evaluation process of the pilots which ran in 3 states in 2008.

Specific Nigerian NGO's and government agencies are licensed to use and distribute the program in school and out of school settings, should you also wish to use or distribute the program further and reach more young people please contact us.
