Why is it important?
The study critically reviews the literature to point out the challenges and policy gaps regarding international students' sexual health.
Perspectives
This study is timely as the number of international students keeps rising. Educational leaders and the countries serving as destinations for international students need to know what their international students go through to access sexual wellness services. Our research findings can help to point these leaders in the right direction to support international students' sexual health needs.
