EMIS 2010: The European Men-Who-Have-Sex-With-Men Internet Survey. National Reports.

EMIS national reports are provided by Associated and Collaborating Partners of EMIS. They are available in the language(s) of the country of the repective partners and are based on the data provided by respondents who lived in that country at the time of the survey (irrespective of the language they used to fill in the questionnaire).

The European MSM Internet Survey (EMIS) is a joint project of academic, governmental, non-governmental, and online media partners from 35 European (EU and neighbouring) countries to inform interventions for a group highly affected by infections with HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs): gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM).

EMIS was designed to collect self-reported data from MSM across Europe. This data can be used as a comparison for follow-up surveys for behavioural surveillance, but also for cross-sectional analyses – comparing different groups of MSM with different needs, comparing different countries or regions, etc. In summer 2010, an online questionnaire was run simultaneously in 25 different languages.
