Negli ultimi decenni si è assistito a un aumento della progettazione e implementazione di programmi di educazione alla sessualità con un approccio olistico in ambito scolastico. La ricerca qualitativa sta acquisendo importanza in questo campo; tuttavia, pochi studi si concentrano sulle prospettive di adolescenti e giovani. Questo studio analizza la ricerca qualitativa attraverso una revisione della letteratura sull’attuazione dei programmi di Educazione Sessuale Integrata (ESI) dal punto di vista dei giovani. È stata condotta una revisione degli studi qualitativi e una metasintesi per delineare lo stato dell’arte della ricerca qualitativa sulla percezione dell’ESI da parte dei giovani. I risultati indicano due aree principali di preoccupazione rilevate dai partecipanti: i contenuti e l’approccio pedagogico. Permane una generale insoddisfazione circa la profondità e l’ampiezza del programma di studi ESI, che lascia ragazzi e ragazze impreparati ad affrontare in chiave positiva questioni connesse alle relazioni e alla salute sessuale. Sul piano pedagogico, si riscontra ancora una carenza nell’attuazione efficace di strategie innovative di insegnamento e apprendimento, evidenziando una lacuna per quanto riguarda i quadri pedagogici alla base dell’ESI.
