Peer education and peer counselling have existed as supplements to medical, nursing, and other professional staff interventions for health and welfare for many years, but satisfactory effectiveness research has just recently been available. These techniques may offer advantages in accessing environments that experts cannot, but because of this, proving their efficacy is difficult. In this study, 58 reviews—including narrative reviews, systematic reviews, and metaanalyses—on this topic are evaluated. Fewer peer education reviews of specific medical illnesses and the jail environment were discovered, compared to numerous reviews of HIV/AIDS interventions and sexual health.
