Full title: Engaging young people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds with sexual and reproductive health services in Sydney.

Young people from migrant and refugee backgrounds are often viewed as sitting at the margins of reproductive and sexual health promotion and care, and underutilising related services. Researchers at UNSW Sydney, in partnership with Family Planning NSW and other health services in Sydney, are undertaking a study to investigate these issues through interviews with key informants and young people from diverse cultural backgrounds.

 

(This research project has been approved by the Family Planning NSW Ethics Committee; approval number R2015-02)
