From August to November 2014, MSMGF recruited a global sample of MSM to complete a 30-minute, anonymous, Internet-based survey, available in Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. Survey participants were recruited via MSMGF?s network of more than 4,000 members representing more than 1,500 community-based organizations in more than 150 countries. MSMGF and its partners used email, social media, and social networks to promote the survey. The survey collected information on individual-level socio-demographics, accessibility and experiences of services, and HIV-related clinical characteristics. Country income levels, stratified by World Bank classifications, were also investigated for their potential impact on access to services.
