Project Summary:
The Sindicato Unico de Trabajadores en la Educación del Peru has been working on the EFAIDS Programme since late 2007.
Activities in 2008
SUTEP was a strong advocate for the National Forum for EFA, through which it hopes to lobby the Peruvian government to make quality public education available to all Peruvian children. SUTEP is an active member of the board and general assembly of the Forum. Following its experience in the forum, SUTEP produced a publication on the National EFA Plan, which it distributed widely in schools and through conferences, workshops/seminars, and the mainstream press.
Issues discussed during EFAIDS workshops included state spending in education, teacher training in public education, and HIV prevention.
SUTEP initiated a research study into HIV and public education in Peru.
