The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that two-thirds of all STIs worldwide occur in young people — teenagers and those in their early twenties (WHO 1993, WHO 1995). The provision of STI services to these age groups should therefore be high on the agenda of STI programme planners and adolescent/young people's health programmers alike. However, attempts to promote the sexual health of young people have so far tended to focus on prevention, education and counselling, while the provision of services to those who have already faced the consequences of unprotected sexual activity, including pregnancy and STI, or sexual violence, has lagged behind. In 1999–2000 a review was commissioned by GTZ of the characteristics of adolescent sexuality, evidence of STI risk in adolescents, the profile of adolescents in need of STI care, types and evidence of success of different STI service delivery models for adolescents and the advantages and disadvantages of each of these, and to what extent a youth-specific approach to STI services or an STI-specific approach to adolescent health service delivery, is warranted. This review will be published jointly by GTZ and WHO with the title Sexually Transmitted Infections among Adolescents: The Need for Adequate Health Services. This is a shortened form of the Summary and Conclusions of this book.RésuméL'Organisation mondiale de la santé (OMS) estime que les deux tiers des MST dans le monde frappent les adolescents et jeunes d'une vingtaine d'annees. Le traitement des MST dans ces groupes d'Age devrait done etre une priorité aussi bien pour les programmes de MST que les programmes de sante des adolescents et des jeunes. Neanmoins, la promotion de la santé génésique des jeunes s'est jusqu'à présent centrée sur la prévention, l'éducation et l'orientation, alors que la prestation de services à ceux qui subissent déjà les conséquences d'une activité sexuelle non protégée, y compris la grossesse et les MST, ou la víolence sexuelle, est restee a la traine. En 1999–2000, GTZ a commandité une recherche étudiant les caracteristiques de la sexualite des adolescents, les risques de MST chez les adolescents, le profil des adolescents necessitant des soins pour MST, les types et les indices de reussite de différents modèlos de services pour adolescents, les avantages et inconvenients de chacun, et dans quelle mesure une approche specifique aux jeunes des services de MST, ou bien une approche spécifique aux MST de la prestation de services de santé des adolescents, se justifie. Cette étude sera publiee conjointement par GTZ et TOMS sous le titre Maladies sexuellement transmissibles chez les adolescents: nécessité de services de santé adaptés. L'article présente un condense du resume et des conclusions de cette recherche.ResumenSegún la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), aproximadamente dos tercios de todas las ETS en el mundo ocurren en jóvenes menores de 25 afios. La provisión de servicios de ETS a ellos debe entonces figurar prominentemente en la agenda de los planificadores de programas de ETS y de salud adolescente. Sin embargo, hasta ahora, los intentos de promover la salud sexual de los jovenes se ban enfocado en la prevencion, la educación y la consejeria, dejando a la zaga la provisión de servicios a aquellos que ya enfrentaron las consecuencias de la actividad sexual sin protección, tales como el embarazo y las ETS, o de la violencia sexual. En 1999–2000, el GTZ comisiono un estudio de las caracteristicas de la sexualidad adolescente, la evidencia de riesgo de ETS en los y las adolescentes, el perfil de los y las adolescentes que necesitan atención para ETS, evidencia del exito de los distintos modelos de entrega de servicios de ETS dirigidos a adolescentes, y las ventajas y desventajas de cada uno de estos, y hasta que punto se justifica un enfoque especificamente orientado hacia los jovenes en los servicios de ETS, o un enfoque especificamente orientado hacia los ETS en la atencion de salud adolescente. Los resultados seran publicados en conjunto por GTZ y la OMS, bajo el titulo Las infecciones de transmisión sexual en adolescentes: la necesidad de servicios de salud adecuados.
