An internal policy paper, released in August 2001 by the Ministry of Youth Affairs of New Zealend, offers insights into a new sexual and reproductive health strategy that has been developed by the Ministry of Health. The strategy responds to the needs of Maoris, the Pacific peoples and all young people, and addresses the issues of sexual abuse, STIs, HIV/AIDS, and unintended pregnancy. Over the past five years, the age group 20-25 has accounted for the highest incidence of abortions and STIs. In 1999, over 60 per cent of all diagnosed cases of gonorrhoea, chlamydia and genital warts were among people under 25 years of age. Attention is now also being called to other issues that impact on young people's sexuality. These include the strong likehood that most women who had sex at a young age were victims of forced sex and the common belief that homosexuality is linked to the incidence of youth suicide.
