Gender, HIV/AIDS and the Status of Teachers cover

In Gender, HIV/AIDS and the Status of Teachers, a significant gathering of researchers from various countries, including Ghana, Jamaica, Kenya, Mozambique, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and Zambia, convened in Maputo to discuss the pivotal role of teachers in achieving educational goals. This book encapsulates the outcomes of their discussions, which took place during the third research symposium organized by the Commonwealth Secretariat in collaboration with Education International in February 2008.

The symposium focused on the theme of 'Gender, HIV/AIDS and the Status of Teachers', addressing crucial topics such as the mobility of teachers and the impact of HIV/AIDS on the education sector. The researchers examined how these factors affect the teaching profession and the overall educational landscape. Their insights highlight the challenges and opportunities that exist within the context of teacher status and well-being.

This publication not only reports on the discussions held but also presents recommendations aimed at improving the conditions for teachers. By addressing the intertwined issues of gender, health, and professional status, Gender, HIV/AIDS and the Status of Teachers serves as a vital resource for policymakers, educators, and researchers interested in enhancing the quality of education through better support for teachers.
