Integrated Biological and Behavioural Surveillance (IBBS) Survey among MSM in South Sudan 24 July 2018

Presentation Outline Background Methodology Results Recommendations

Background FSW and their clients account for at least 63% of new adult infections (MoT, 2014) FSW: Prevalence is at least 5x higher than the general population (SS GF CN, 2015) Other KPs: HIV and AIDS data is limited e.g. for MSM No previous data around MSM in SS KPs necessary in programming targets to achieve 90-90-90

Homosexuality in South Sudan Homosexuality and sodomy is illegal in South Sudan 2008 SS Penal Code criminalises sodomy and Section 248, ‘law of unnatural offences’, states that persons found to violate this law could be liable to a fine and face imprisonment of up to ten years. Socio-cultural conservatism: MSM sexual behaviour is viewed as culturally unacceptable, immoral and highly stigmatised Security situation: Affects environment for conducting research, especially with KPs in the country

Objectives Understand the MSM community and factors that predispose the population to a greater risk for HIV Obtain baseline prevalence data for HIV and Syphilis Provide recommendations to address gaps in access to critical HIV prevention, treatment, care and support services for MSM and their partners Not for the whole country but suggested sites – for 6 sites

Methodology Non probability purposive sampling and snowball sampling to recruit respondents Standard behavioural questionnaire (N=165) HIV and Syphilis testing (N=152) FGDs (N=5) with MSM KIIs (N=19) with MSM network leaders, government Data collected from in 6 sites, during 3 weeks, in Nov/Dec 2017 Ethical approval granted by the ERC (GoSS-MOH) Quality control measures were observed throughout the study
