Perú’s Education Minister has formally requested the revocation of the National Intersectorial Policy on Sexuality. The ministry also proposed issuing a presidential directive to halt any new administrative actions related to the policy. This move signals a potential shift in approach to sex education and related initiatives within the country. Details regarding the reasoning behind the request have not been fully disclosed, but it suggests concerns regarding the current policy’s implementation or objectives. Observers anticipate debate over the potential impacts of repealing the national policy on public health and student wellbeing. The presidential directive, if approved, would effectively pause any further administrative steps connected to the existing framework. Further developments are expected as the request moves through the appropriate governmental channels in Perú.
