Course Content

The course adopts a holistic approach towards the subject of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) and includes health-promoting perspectives on SRHR for adolescents and young adults. The course covers various factors that affect SRHR and includes such subject areas as reproduction, andrology, gynaecology, sexuality, consent, societal norms, LGBTQ+ issues, functionality, gender, identity, relationships, risk behaviours, culture, violence, mental health, and the impact of climate change and conflict. The course has several modules that integrate a theoretical and reflective approach with global perspectives. Throughout the course and in relation to quality improvement and development work, students work with the retrieval of evidence-based information and the critical evaluation of sources.

We hope you engage in inspiring, interesting, and challenging discussions with your teachers and fellow students. As with all courses at Dalarna University, this course has a strong foundation in theory and research.
An important feature in the design of the course is that it connects theory with practice.

We view group work as an important resource in all course activities, made evident by the feedback of previous participants of the course, who highlighted the value of group discussions. Due to the broad scope of the course, it is impossible to go into depth on all topics, but we hope that what you learn will inspire interest and hel you develop the tools you need in your continued professional development as a higher education teacher in collaboration with your colleagues.
