520 |a This study offers empirical evidence regarding the relationship between sexual behaviour, sexual risk, and belonging to a certain religion among the young population of Latin America. To this end, we compared results of the national youth surveys of Guatemala, Chile, Uruguay, Mexico, and Peru, which included religious affiliation (Catholic, evangelical, and other religions) and sexual and reproductive health indicators. The analysis grouped some of these indicators according to the three pedagogical dimensions addressed by the Comprehensive Sexual Education perspective and proposed as part of the third pedagogical dimension, an index of sexual risk (SRI). The inquiry concludes by identifying nine Christian religious youth groups (aged between 15 and 19 years old) placed in four (Guatemala, Peru, Chile, and Mexico) of the five selected countries that surpassed their respective national averages in the top categories of our SRI ("moderate risk," "high risk," and "very high risk"). This finding could mean, in practical terms, the need to establish sex education programs oriented to specific religious groups, such as youth evangelicals from Peru.
