NAZ PROJECT REPORT SUMMARY
Sexual Health Knowledge, Attitudes and Behaviours among Black and Minority Ethnic Youth in London by Adrienne Testa and Dr Lester Coleman,

Young People in Focus and NAZ Project London 2006

This report presents extensive findings from a highly influential two year study exploring the sexual health of young people from Black and Minority (BME) groups. Over 3000 young people took part in the survey. Ethnic variations in sexual health knowledge, attitudes and behaviours are reported (including variations in risky sexual behaviour). Practical information on young people's learning preferences (e.g. sexual health topics they want more information on) are also shown. Findings from 50 in-depth interviews among young BME people are also summarised including quotes from the young people themselves.

The report closes by providing numerous implications for practice and policy.
