PEER EDUCATOR COURSE
The HIV/AIDS epidemic affects everyone. Every individual, every family, every social institution and every business, big or small. It is however a preventable and manageable disease if you know what to do. INCON HEALTH has a comprehensive HIV Intervention Programme and one of the key components is the PEER EDUCATOR COURSE.
What is Peer Education?
Peer education utilises the influence peers can have on one another. With HIV intervention this entails peers educating their colleagues on HIV in such a way that brings about both attitudinal and behaviour change, on both the individual and community level. Peer education is an informal style of educating where the peer and not the outside professional is used to bring about change. Peer education utilises participatory and communication based learning methods. It is cost effective and culturally appropriate. PEER EDUCATOR COURSE details:
