Workshops for young people

For young people, the topic of sexuality is interesting and exciting. Now is the ideal time to learn how to deal responsibly with sexuality and the possible risks - valuable knowledge for many years to come. Especially at this age, however, it is often difficult to address intimate questions to teachers or parents.

The workshops of Aids Hilfe Wien are specially tailored to young people. Trained sex educators provide resource- and life-orientated basic information about sexual health.
