Released/updated on: 2015-06-03
Geographic coverage: Colombia
This project is a five-year research program that investigates individual, social, and structural influences on HIV risk and serostatus among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Bogota, Colombia. Phase I of the study involves qualitative research (12 key informant interviews, 10 focus groups, and 28 life history interviews). Life history interviews are conducted with MSM who have experienced home displacement. Phase II involves quantitative research. Rapid oral HIV testing and a quantitative survey instrument is administered with A-CASI to samples of MSM ages 15-49. Social and structural data are collected on the locations where participants live. The pilot test includes 100 participants and the full administration of the revised survey includes 1000 participants, all obtained through respondent-driven sampling.
