The Role of Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity in Public Health Program Evaluation: Global Perspective from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health

Abstract
 
Understanding the context of sexual orientation and gender identity is vital to positive health outcomes for sexual diversity groups including those who identify themselves as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, intersex and those who haven’t yet identified themselves. Currently, there is a common global challenge on how to best provide services to these populations. Therefore, understanding sexual orientation and gender identity can help improve public health program and its implications for relevant frameworks, program monitoring and evaluation.
