Hola,
Adicionalmente al tema de la revisión, hay información sobre aspectos
metodológicos en investigación con poblaciones migrantes en Europa, que
puede ser de interés.

Saludos, mc

“….The report is based on information gathered through a systematic review
of the literature on HIV testing and counselling in these populations in
high-income countries; a review of international and national policies and
guidelines on HIV testing and counselling; a survey of EU, EEA and EFTA
Member States; and individual interviews and group meetings with key
government and non-government stakeholders.****


It is organised in five sections:****

• Section 1 briefly describes the review background and methodology.****

• Section 2 summarises findings about HIV prevalence and risk factors in
migrant populations and ethnic minorities.****

• Section 3 overview of international, regional policies,
guidelines/recommendations on HIV testing and counselling in migrant
populations and ethnic minorities.****

• Section 4 highlights challenges and barriers to HIV testing among migrant
and ethnic minority populations.****

• Section 5 outlines approaches to HIV testing in migrants and ethnic
minorities. It also considers how to increase uptake of testing in these
populations….”
