The youth face many challenges due to their physiological, psychological, social and economic circumstances.  This makes them a particularly vulnerable group.
This module unit is intended to equip them with knowledge, skills, attitudes and values that empower them to face realities of life.  It is hoped that this will enable them to take responsibility for their individual actions.
At the end of the unit is a list of teaching/learning activities, teaching/learning resources and evaluation methods that may be applied in the implementation of the syllabus unit.  The list is not exhaustive and the instructor is encouraged to explore other suitable methods.
