Azerbaijan will introduce gender education lessons at secondary school. This issue will be reflected in amendments to the law on "Protection of reproductive health and family planning".

Gender education must be held among minors in Azerbaijan, member of the committee on social policy of the Azerbaijani Parliament Elmira Akhundova told Trend today.

She was commenting on this supplement to the law.

She added that the text books on this subject must be prepared for senior pupils. Besides gender education, family planning must be also discussed.

She added that mentally ill people, the disabled, drug addicts marry. This leads to unhappy marriages. Gender education must be held to resolve this problem.
