<unk> , be<unk> ,<unk>  a condom, also known as the ABC strategy or<unk>  plus of sex education, is a sex education policy based on harm reduction which modifies the strict approach of<unk> -only sex education by including education about safe sex and birth control methods. The ABC approach was developed in response to the growing epidemic of HIV/AIDS in Africa, and to prevent the spread of other sexually transmitted diseases.
It recommends sexual<unk>  outside marriage as an ideal, having only a single long-term sexual partner. The<unk>  of condoms and other safe sex practices is advocated only if it is not possible to remain with a single sexual partner. Advocating this ideal, whilst pragmatically dealing with the fact that<unk>  only sex education is ineffective by itself, has made the ABC approach more palatable to many African governments and U.S. funding agencies who answer to a majority Christian voter base.[citation needed]
The ABC approach has notably been<unk> d in African countries like Botswana and Uganda.
