Abstract
Although there are subjective and objective needs for a systematic sexual education, in our schools sexuality is taught mostly within the content of Science. During the last few years various health education programs offer information on sexuality, but they are not implemented in all schools. In practice informative and abstinence programs have been proved ineffective. Informative programs result in greater knowledge about human sexuality, but do not affect youth’s sexual behaviour.
Therefore, there have been some recent attempts to implement theoretically-based programmes that encourage responsible sexual behaviour and the use of protection.
