Description

This book examines sex, sexuality, gender and health in the Pacific with a focus on three key sets of issues: young people, culture and education; sexual and reproductive health and well-being; and belonging, connectedness and justice.

Bringing together the work of scholars from across the Pacific region, this innovative volume showcases traditional knowledge and diverse disciplinary scholarship of policy and practice relevance. In addition to focusing on relationships, health, education, family and community, chapters engage with a number of cross-cutting themes, including violence, justice and rights, and sexuality and gender diversity. Drawing on the diversity and richness of the Pacific, its cultures, languages and people, the book lays the foundations for future conversations and scholarship for, and by, those within the Pacific.

Sex and Gender in the Pacific is an important resource for students, researchers and practitioners working in Pacific studies, sexuality and gender studies, public health, nursing, public policy, sociology, education and anthropology.

Angela Kelly-Hanku is Senior Principal Research Fellow in the Sexual and Reproductive Health Unit, at the Papua New Guinea Institute of Medical Research and a Scientia associate professor in the Kirby Institute for Infection and Immunity in Society, Faculty of Medicine at UNSW Sydney, Australia.

Peter Aggleton has a background in the social sciences as applied to well-being, education and health. He holds senior professorial positions at a number of universities including The Australian National University in Canberra, UNSW Sydney, and UCL in London.

Anne Malcolm is a freelance consultant with a background in social work and public health. She has decades of experience working with global health programmes, providing specialist consultancy and support in programme management, design and evaluation to a range of government and non-governmental organisations, particularly in the Pacific region.
