On the basis oj the findings, it was suggested that curriculum experts of civic and ethical education require to reconsider the already integrated HIVIAIDS issues and revise to integrate comprehensive HIVIAIDS issues sufficiently which would enable students to protect them selves from risk oj the disease rather than emphasizing mainly on knowledge based in/ormation that dominantly concentrated on impact and distribution oj the pandemic.
