Non
Formal Education Making the Connections: Why Literacy Matters for HIV
Prevention By MEDEL-ANONUEVO, Carolyn and DIARRA Mamadou, Cheick
This
study is the fi rst of a UIE launched series entitled “Literacy Matters”.
This issue, which looks at the relationship between literacy and HIV prevention
education, is the result of the work carried out by UIE in collaboration
with the ADEA WGNFE. It examines the contribution of non-formal education
to HIV prevention, and demonstrates how literacy – one of the key areas
of non formal education – is making a difference in HIV prevention through
innovative approaches, in particular through community participation.

Capacity
2000 Plus
Competency-based Community Skills Development
ADEA Working Group on Nonformal Education, Commonwealth Secretariat,
1999
The notion of workforce education holds much promise for dealing with
the lack of skilled human resources on the one hand, and shortage of
employment opportunities on the other. The Capacity 2000 workshop, held
in Namibia in 1997, was successful in accomplishing the formation of
an advisory council to guide and develop the improvement of competency-based
skills training. This workshop report has been reproduced in order to
make the concept and potential impact of workforce training more widely
available.
