Men of refugee and migrant backgrounds in Australia: a scoping review of sexual and reproductive health research

Zelalem Mengesha, Alexandra J. Hawkey, Mazen Baroudi, Jane M. Ussher, Janette Perz Refugee and migrant men in Australia are currently under-represented and generally marginalised in fertility and sexual and reproductive health program development, research conceptualisation and implementation. This review indicates that sexual and reproductive health literature on refugee and migrant men largely focuses on sexually transmitted infections, meaning other areas such as contraception, fertility, the impact of gender roles and psychosexual health are poorly understood. This knowledge is needed to evaluate and inform national and state policy on men’s health in Australia.
