Sexuality education in Belarus

SHAPE classifies the sexuality education framework in Belarus as highly restricted. This describes the national policy framework, not how every school delivers it.

Highly restricted framework

Last checked 14/09/2026 · This is information only, not advice or a recommendation.

  • National framework: No comprehensive rights-based national programme was verified. Available content is limited, and discussion of sexual and gender diversity is constrained.
  • Interpretation: The status summarizes the verified policy framework; it does not guarantee uniform classroom delivery.
