Sexuality Pedagogy Reloaded
In a world that has rapidly evolved, some topics still remain in the shadows—especially when it comes to sexual education and self-determination. Our society holds clear ideas about what sexual relationships should look like, shaped by gender roles, deeply rooted myths, and outdated norms. But where do we stand today, about 50 years after the sexual revolution? Have we achieved the freedom that was once promised to us, or are we still stuck in old patterns?
In our course "Sexuality Pedagogy Reloaded", we aim to address these questions boldly and openly. Together, we will question traditional ways of thinking and explore what a contemporary approach to sexual pedagogy could look like. We will focus particularly on three central themes:
-
Sex Education: How do we convey knowledge about sexuality that is free from prejudice and taboo?
-
Prevention of Sexual Violence: What strategies can we develop to effectively prevent sexual violence?
-
Promotion of Sexual Self-Determination and Rights: How can we strengthen the rights of all people to live their sexual identities freely and autonomously?
This course is much more than just a theoretical exploration—it is an invitation to experience sexuality pedagogy in practice and expand your expertise in the field.
The course will take place in person. For your assessment, you may either give a presentation or write a term paper. If you choose not to do a traditional form of assessment, you can alternatively complete a participation-based task, such as writing a reflection on one of our sessions. Detailed requirements and options will be provided on Moodle.
