What is it about?
We assessed the effect of peer and provider-based HIV education on HIV knowledge and behaviour risk among adolescents and youths in Nigeria. Both interventions were effective in increasing knowledge and reducing behaviour risk. The two models of HIV education should be adopted in secondary schools in view of their peculiarities and applicability.
