​ ​​​​The NSW STI Programs Unit (STIPU) is a team of multidisciplinary professionals dedicated to preventing sexually transmissible infections (STIs) across New South Wales through clinical support, early intervention work and health promotion.

Guided by the NSW Health STI and HIV strategies, the team works alongside key stakeholders and the community to develop and implement programs, policies and interventions that reduce STI transmission and improve sexual health outcomes.

Key areas of work​​

  1. Education and awareness: Developing evidence-based educational resources and campaigns to increase awareness of STIs and reduce stigma around sexual health.
  2. Clinical support: Offering guidance, training, and resources to healthcare professionals across NSW by building their capacity to prevent, diagnose, and manage sexual health concerns effectively.
  3. Research and innovation: Conducting and supporting research projects across Australia to drive innovation in sexual health promotion and STI management.
  4. Rapid response to emerging issues: Monitoring qualitative and quantitative data to identify emerging issues and develop targeted and timely solutions.
