In order to try to improve the performance of prevention initiatives in First Nations communities of Quebec region, this survey’s overall objective is to deepen our understanding of the factors that contribute to the sexual health of youth and adults. This will be done by surveying the socio-cultural, socio-environmental and inter-personal determinants involved in sexual activities as well as people’s perceptions and knowledge related to STBBIs. This survey also addresses the context of the risks taken by these youth and adults with regards to sexuality, especially concerning STBBI prevention. The conclusions will help decision-makers, stakeholders, health professionals and community members identify the best approaches to help reduce STBBI transmission.
