Agency in young people’s unsafe abortion trajectories in Papua New Guinea
Unsafe abortion is a preventable contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality, particularly for young unmarried women in low resource settings. In Papua New Guinea, abortion is legally restricted and highly stigmatised, limiting access to safe abortion and post-abortion care, resulting in unsafe abortion. This paper explores young people's lived experiences and agency in relation to unsafe abortion. We undertook qualitative research between 20…
Socio-structural influences on unintended pregnancy among girls aged 15–17 years in Papua New Guinea
INTRODUCTION: Unintended pregnancy among adolescent girls is a public health priority globally, particularly in Papua New Guinea (PNG), where low contraceptive use among young people has resulted in some of the highest adolescent fertility rates in the Asia-Pacific region. This paper investigates the socio-structural influences on adolescent girls' ability to prevent unintended pregnancies in PNG. METHODS: Qualitative research conducted between 2…
Tuberculosis treatment and undernutrition on Daru Island, Papua New Guinea
A substantial proportion of people with tuberculosis (TB)-one of the world's deadliest infectious diseases-live in resource-poor, food insecure settings. It is widely recognised that undernutrition significantly heightens vulnerability to TB, as well as contributes to poor treatment adherence and outcomes. However, more attention is needed to understand what shapes food insecurity and undernutrition in a particular setting. We use the concept of …
The role and value of counsellors in the treatment journeys of people with tuberculosis and their families
Combined education and counselling can contribute to person-centred care for tuberculosis (TB), improving uptake, adherence, and outcomes of treatment for TB disease and TB infection. Though strongly recommended by the World Health Organization for all people diagnosed with TB, education and counselling is not widely implemented in TB programs around the world. In 2016, a pilot TB education and counselling program, delivered by trained profession…
We Live Just Like a Normal Family”
The contemporary global discourse of “HIV normalisation” is intimately linked to the scientific consensus that, with effective antiretroviral therapy, an “undetectable” viral load renders HIV “non-infectious” and “untransmittable” between sexual partners. Beyond this correlation, HIV normality is rarely defined, leaving the impression that it is an objective and universally applicable phenomenon. But what does normality mean in settings where the…
Exploring Tuberculosis Riskscapes in a Papua New Guinean 'Hotspot
This article explores socio-spatial dimensions of risk and how they can enhance understanding of a high burden tuberculosis (TB) context in the South Fly District of Papua New Guinea. We report on select findings from a qualitative study that included 128 semi-structured in-depth interviews and 10 focus group discussions with a wide range of South Fly District community members. Using the conceptual framework of 'riskscapes' to examine emic persp…
Making Sense of Serodiscordance
The World Health Organization has emphasised the importance of HIV testing for couples as part of a global strategy to support the HIV prevention needs of couples, particularly those whose test results are ‘serodiscordant’ (one partner is diagnosed HIV-positive, the other HIV-negative). Studies have focused on motivations and barriers to testing together as a couple. However, this provides only partial insights into a bigger and often more comple…
Caring Masculinities in the Context of HIV Serodiscordant Relationships in Papua New Guinea
Globally, there is limited research exploring the positive role men play in reducing HIV vulnerability or in the care and support of women living with HIV. This paper draws on interviews conducted with men and women in heterosexual HIV serodiscordant relationships as part of a longitudinal qualitative study exploring the social aspects of biomedicine among serodiscordant couples in two high HIV-burden areas in Papua New Guinea (PNG). Findings hig…
Polygyny, Serodiscordance and HIV Prevention in Papua New Guinea
Polygyny is practised in vastly different cultural contexts, including in Papua New Guinea (PNG). The literature is contradictory, arguing that polygyny is either protective against HIV or a critical risk factor. Neither argument accounts for the diversity of polygyny. Even less attention has been paid to polygynous marriages with mixed HIV status (serodiscordance). This paper draws on a longitudinal study of the socio-cultural aspects of biomedi…
Vibrant Entanglements
The global ambition to "end AIDS" hinges on the universal uptake of HIV treatment-as-prevention and is undergirded by the assumption that biomedical technologies have consistent, predictable effects across highly diverse settings. But as anthropologists argue, such technologies are actively transformed by their local encounters, with various constitutive effects. How priority populations, such as HIV "serodiscordant" couples, negotiate treatment-…
More than just a cut
BACKGROUND: Male circumcision (MC) has been shown to reduce vaginal transmission of HIV to men. While community acceptability is important in a countries preparedness to introduce MC, it is equally important to map contemporary MC and other penile cutting practices, and the socio-cultural dimensions underpinning these practices. METHODS: A total of 482 men and women (n = 276 and n = 210, respectively) participated in 82 semi-structured and 45 foc…
