The purpose of this literature review was to identify key components of appropriate models and approaches to deliver effective sexual and reproductive health promotion to Pacific
peoples in New Zealand. The findings reveal that there is no one model that specifically
applies to the area of Pacific sexual and reproduction health promotion. However, there are
two rich sources of information that can be further explored and developed to create a model that is appropriate. There is a well-established body of international literature that document the guiding health promotion principles and success factors necessary for sexual
health programme development. The necessary characteristics of individuals working in this
area have also been documented. There is also a growing body of New Zealand Pacific evidence, largely in the qualitative domain, that highlight important considerations when
attempting to develop and implement such a programme as well as in the selection of health promotion staff.(from the Executive summary) Record #4737
