This study explores migrant and refugee youths’ (aged 16-24) understandings and experiences of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) - a gap identified in on our interdisciplinary pilot work. Little is known about migrant and refugee youths’ knowledge and agency related to SRHR in Greater Western Sydney because youth are rarely asked. Although sexual and reproductive wellbeing cannot be realised without SRHR – a fundamental human right - few studies have considered migrant and refugee youths’ knowledge and agency in Greater Western Sydney. The little research conducted in this region (mostly our own) on migrant and refugee youths’ sexual and reproductive health has mostly focused on the prevalence of unplanned pregnancy, having STIs, intergenerational issues, crosscultural clashes and constructions of sexual and reproductive health in relation to culture and/or religion. This project therefore draws on our interdisciplinary pilot work and uses participatory action research (PAR) to address the following study aims:

1. Investigate migrant and refugee youths’ understanding of and experiences with sexual and reproductive health and rights.

2. Identify the barriers and facilitators migrant and refugee youth perceive to sexual and reproductive wellbeing, decision-making and agency.

3. Map the socioecological factors that characterise youth sexual and reproductive health and rights and their support needs, literacy, service utilisation, availability and accessibility.
