Based on the development work, the following resources were developed for the current toolkit:

A mixture of presentations and activity/work sheets have been developed to provide educators and learners with appropriate information and activities. Educators may decide to use the presentations as a formal lecture, as a wall display or as a resource booklet for learners.
