Le VIH/SIDA apparaît aujourd’hui comme l’une des pandémies les plus meurtrières au plan
mondial. Il touche particulièrement la zone subsaharienne de l’Afrique qui n’abrite guère plus
de 10% de la population mondiale mais qui possède près de deux tiers du total des personnes
infect...es par le VIH. Au Bénin la prévalence du VIH s’était stabilisée autour de 2% de 2002 à
2005 avant de passer en 2006 à 1,2% selon l’EDSB III. Cette prévalence faible présente des
disparités régionales et sociales. Les tendances épidémiologiques récentes révèlent que
l’affection du VIH/SIDA touche une population de plus en plus jeune et de plus en plus
féminine. Mais quelle est la situation des jeunes scolaires de 15-24 ans ? C’est là la principale
préoccupation prise en compte par cette communication qui vise à analyser l’influence de
l’environnement scolaire sur les risques en termes de sexualité des jeunes de 15-24 ans.
