Inclusive Sexual Health Education: A Necessity, Not a Debate
Résumé
The province of Saskatchewan has been dealing with the ramifications of Bill 137. This bill impacts students’ autonomy regarding names, pronouns, sexual health education, and access to third-party educators. At the University of Regina, the Faculty of Education advocates for anti-oppressive teaching, research, service, and socially just education. Health majors and physical education majors take EH350 School Health Education, where they are encouraged to view health education as an avenue to challenge oppression. This collaborative piece created by an undergraduate student and a teacher educator focuses on inclusive sexual health education. Bolstered by literature and personal experiences, we advocate for the necessity of inclusive sexual health education, which is particularly relevant in our current context.
