| Abstract | The overall aim of the research was to fill gaps in information on HIV and STI prevalence and risk behaviours among MSM and TG in Vanuatu through Integrated Bio‐Behavioural Surveillance (IBBS) and support interventions in Vanuatu. The study was collaboration between the Burnet Institute, Wan Smolbag Theatre and the Vanuatu Ministry of Health. Three research objectives were identified: 1. To estimate the prevalence of chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis and HIV among MSM and TG; 2. To describe knowledge, attitudes and risk behaviours among MSM and TG in Port Vila; and 3. To estimate population size of MSM and TG in Port Vila. These research objectives were addressed through two research components implemented in parallel: Integrated Bio‐Behavioural Survey with MSM and TG; and Population Size Estimation of MSM and TG. |
