Summary

French Guiana, a French territory located in South America, faces several social challenges including financial insecurity, unemployment and significant immigration. The degraded living conditions of migrants arriving in the territory are likely to put them in a situation of sexual vulnerability that could increase their risk of acquiring HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). This study proposes to conduct a survey of a group of people living with HIV in French Guiana who were born in Haiti and a group of Haitian people who are not HIV positive. With the help of interviewers who speak Haitian Creole, it will allow us to better understand the life paths of people from Haiti and their periods of vulnerability. Investigators will also focus on the use of testing and retention in care for those living with HIV. The results of this work will allow for the mobilization of resources and better adjustment of social support, prevention and care interventions implemented in French Guiana for migrant populations and/or those in precarious situations.
