Abstract

In Australia, surveillance data establish that there are higher rates of late HIV diagnoses among heterosexual migrants from Sub-Saharan Africa and new HIV diagnoses among gay and bisexual men (GBM) from Southeast and Northeast Asia and Latin America. Together, these groups are identified as priority migrant communities in current efforts to eliminate HIV transmissions. HIV health literacy is recognised as a key means of improving access to services and health outcomes. This qualitative paper explores critical HIV health literacy among priority migrant communities in Queensland, Australia. To foreground community voices, peer researchers from priority migrant communities participated in the project design, data collection and analysis, with 20 interviews completed. The findings demonstrate how participants' engagement with HIV health information and services is highly relational and situated within the framework of sexual health and wellbeing. Participants strategically selected where to seek information and who they trusted to help them appraise this information. They further demonstrated reflective capacities in identifying the contextual barriers that inhibit the development of their HIV health literacy. The findings highlight the need for HIV health promotion strategies that embrace a sex positive approach, promote cultural change, and involve collaboration with general practitioners (GPs).

发展关键的艾滋病毒健康知识:来自澳大利亚昆士兰优先移民社区采访的见解。
在澳大利亚,监测数据表明,来自撒哈拉以南非洲的异性恋移民的晚期艾滋病毒诊断率较高,来自东南亚、东北亚和拉丁美洲的同性恋和双性恋男性的新艾滋病毒诊断率也较高。在目前消除艾滋病毒传播的努力中,这些群体被确定为优先移民社区。艾滋病毒健康知识被认为是改善获得服务和健康结果的关键手段。这篇定性论文探讨了澳大利亚昆士兰优先移民社区中关键的艾滋病毒健康知识。为了发出社区声音,来自优先移民社区的同行研究人员参与了项目设计、数据收集和分析,完成了20次访谈。研究结果表明,参与者对艾滋病毒健康信息和服务的参与是高度相关的,并处于性健康和幸福的框架内。参与者战略性地选择在哪里寻求信息,以及他们信任谁来帮助他们评估这些信息。他们进一步展示了识别阻碍其艾滋病毒健康知识发展的背景障碍的反思能力。研究结果强调了艾滋病毒健康促进战略的必要性,这些战略包括积极的性方法,促进文化变革,并涉及与全科医生的合作。
