Conducted in a society with very low HIV prevalence, where 91.6% of the citizens disapprove of homosexuality and where there is no inclusive law to protect people from discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation, this community-based research paper aims to provide a description and in-depth analysis of the different gender and sexual identities, sexual behaviors and practices, and sexual health needs of men having sex with men in different socio-cultural environments in Macedonia. We hope it would provide a context-sensitive and analytical overview and baseline data that can be used for the purposes of creating future programmatic interventions by stakeholders responsible for HIV prevention among MSM and for positive prevention of PLHIV and HIV prevention in general.
The Research paper is available in English and Macedonian.
