Fostering Aboriginal sexual well-being by building on strengths

该项目旨在采用一种以优势为基础的方法来研究土著青年如何利用社会、文化和个人资源来建立他们的性健康。许多澳大利亚原住民认为，优势方法是解决劣势的关键。然而，到目前为止，它们还没有被广泛用于解决土著青年经历的严重的性健康不平等问题。该项目将创造新的知识，了解在支持土著青年的性健康方面“什么是有效的”，这些知识与健康和福利领域以外的广泛学科有关。

This project aims to use a strengths-based approach to examine how Aboriginal young people draw on social, cultural and personal resources to build their sexual well-being. Many Aboriginal Australians see strengths approaches as essential to addressing disadvantage. However, to date they have not been widely used to address the significant sexual health inequalities experienced by Aboriginal young people. The project will create new knowledge about ‘what works’ in supporting the sexual well-being of Aboriginal young people, that has relevance to a broad range of disciplines beyond the area of health and well-being.
