World Health Organization (WHO) defines sexual health not only as absence of functional disorder or disability, but also as a state of complete sexual well-being in a physical, emotional, mental, and social sense. Regarding sexuality, which is an instinct and a necessity of being human, providing education at the right time by individuals with sufficient information and training may play a significant role in reducing and/or preventing issues which may arise among the youth. Since sexual health education may be different for every country and every culture, it may be appropriate to start with families by educating parents in the most appropriate way and including relevant subjects in school programs with professional educators. As public health professionals, school nurses are responsible for protecting sexual/sexual health rights given by the laws, having a say in changes in such laws, and sharing their knowledge and skills with students in a proper manner. School nurses should take the lead in raising awareness by informing parents, teachers and students about the necessity and importance of sexual health education. The aim of the current study is to emphasize the importance of sexual health education for adolescents both in the family and educational institutions.

Cinsel sağlık; Dünya Sağlık Örgütü’nün ifadesiyle; sadece hastalık, işlev bozukluğu veya sakatlığın olmaması değil, cinsellikle ilişkili olarak fiziksel, duygusal, zihinsel ve sosyal olarak tam bir iyilik halidir. İnsan olmanın gerekliliklerinden olan içgüdüsel olarak bulunan cinselliğin eğitim olarak doğru zamanda uygun bir şekilde yeterli bilgi ve donanıma sahip kişiler tarafından verilmesi gençlerde gelişebilecek sorunların azalmasında ve/veya önlenmesinde büyük rol oynayabilir. Cinsel sağlık eğitimi her ülke ve her kültür için farklı olabileceğinden, profesyonel eğitimcilerle birlikte okul programlarına ebeveynleri en uygun şekilde eğiterek ailelerle başlamak uygun olabilir. Halk sağlığı profesyonelleri olarak, okul hemşireleri, öğrencilerin yasada verilen cinsel/cinsel sağlık haklarını savunma ve bu yasaların değişikliği ile ilgili söz sahibi olma ve edindiği bilgi ve beceriyi uygun bir şekilde öğrencilere aktarma sorumluluğuna sahiptirler. Okul hemşireleri, cinsel sağlık eğitiminin gerekliliği ve önemi ile ilgili ebeveynler, öğretmenler ve öğrencilere bilgi vererek farkındalık yaratmada liderlik etmelidir. Cinsel sağlık eğitimi her ülkede ve her kültürde farklılar gösterebileceğinden en uygun şekilde gerek ebeveynlerin eğitilerek ailede başlanması, gerekse profesyonel eğitmenler ile okul programlarına konularak anlatılması uygun olabilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, hem ailede hem de eğitim kurumlarında ergenler için cinsel sağlık eğitiminin önemini vurgulamaktır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, hem ailede hem de eğitim kurumlarında adölesanlar için cinsel sağlık eğitiminin önemini vurgulamaktır.
