Development and Pilot Testing of a Culturally Adapted, High-impact HIV Preventive Intervention with Young Men who have Sex with Men and Transgender Women in Three Thai Provinces
The goal of this innovative project is to culturally adapt, implement, and evaluate an evidence-based HIV prevention program with young gay men and young transgender people (16–20-years-old) in Thailand—groups at disproportionately high risk for HIV infection. Results will advance health knowledge and health outcomes for sexual and gender minority adolescents and support a replicable model for young people in the Global South who are highly impacted by HIV. Funder: Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR)
