Human rights: In November 2008, a Caribbean telecommunication company organized a free concert with two Jamaican Dancehall artists who are known for their homophobic and discriminatory song lyrics, in which they speak of promoting violence and hate against the MSM community and women.

In response to this need, Suriname Men United created a website providing relevant health information for the MSM community in Suriname. To illustrate one specific need, reference is made by the closeted respondents for a need for discreet health information for men who have sex with other men. The needs assessment gave sufficient insight into the beliefs, behaviors and needs of men who are openly MSM or are having closeted sex with other men in Suriname. One hundred MSM took part in the needs assessment of which seventy men were open about having sex with other men, while the remaining thirty were not. The needs assessment was SMU's first large activity and provided baseline information for follow-up activities. Research: In 2008 SMU conducted a needs assessment of Men who have sex with men (MSM) in Paramaribo, the capital of Suriname. For the launching of SMU, the organization received assistance from the Caribbean Epidemiology Centre (CAREC), a regional public health institution based in Port of Spain. SMU was initiated as an organizations to give the MSM community a voice in Suriname.

However, because of the existence of MSM-focused organizations in other Caribbean countries, the issues were more recognized there. At the conference, the founder of SMU became aware that in other Caribbean countries, MSM communities were facing similar discrimination and human rights issues as the Surinamese MSM community. The idea to establish an organization focusing on the well-being of the Surinamese MSM community was born during a conference on Community Mobilization and Participatory Approaches to HIV/AIDS in Port of Spain, Trinidad & Tobago in 2002. On the first of November 2005, the NGO Suriname Men United was founded and it was launched on the first of December 2006, World AIDS Day.
