【TUFiSCo*-ILCAA International Symposium】
Sexuality in Contemporary Africa: Tradition, Education and Practices
現代アフリカにおけるセクシュアリティ： 伝統、教育、そして実践
<Theme Abstract>
Despite the international development organizations' efforts toward mitigation of learner single motherhood, early pregnancies, and HIV prevalence among societies in Africa, these issues have remained persistently incremental in the last one decade and more recently worsened during COVID-19 pandemic. Menstrual poverty and related WASH problems remain systemic. What explains this trend? Prior to colonial invasion, sexuality was central to every society whereby the family was the educational pivot. The events that followed colonial occupation repositioned the sexuality values toward 'presumed modernity'. The transitioning from the traditional to the 'presumed modern' practices has mutated into dynamic between-ness. In this symposium, we ethnographically interrogate this between-ness and associated complications. We tackle the sensitivities of sexuality in some societies and address the cultural, religious, and political dimensions of sexual education and practices. We identify the existential gaps in the sexual education in the life cycle of a 'presumed modern African' society.
