For this volcanic, pacific nation daily life still revolves around making a living from subsistence or small-scale agriculture.
Almost three-quarters of Vanuatu’s population of just almost 240,000 people live in the rural areas, although urban migration to Port Vila and Luganville is increasing at a high rate.
Major health challenges still facing the country according to the World Health Organization include:
Researchers coordinated a study to estimate the number of men who have sex with men and female sex workers, and the prevalence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in Port Vila, Vanuatu.
There is no empirical evidence on HIV and STI epidemiology and vulnerability in most Pacific Island countries and territories, including Vanuatu.
