Final Year Project

Project Title

Evaluation of LSBE (Life Skills Based Education) Curriculum

Description

My thesis stands at the intersection of health, education and social development. It is an evaluation of Aahung’s LSBE (life skills based education) curriculum. It looks at the curriculum content, development process and pedagogy through a feminist pedagogical framework. The purpose of this research is to do a detailed study of the curriculum and understand the loopholes within the curriculum or its theoretical framework, if any. Moreover, to understand the contextual realities pertaining to the issue and how the curriculum deals with social stigmas.
