Common reasons why peer education fails

S A Walker et al. J Adolesc. 1999 Aug.

Abstract

Peer education frequently fails. The reasons are numerous and can usually be avoided with clear planning. The most common reasons cited for failure relate to project design and implementation difficulties. The aim of this review is to identify the primary reasons for the failure of peer education programmes in order to help project managers avoid making similar mistakes in the future.
