The varied perspectives of organisational effectiveness
Within global health and development, dissatisfaction with nongovernmental organisations' effectiveness (NGOs) is an increasingly pervasive aspect of programming.

Despite some attention, SDH remain overlooked in a biomedically oriented, federal HIV policy. Mississippi is the poorest state with the worst HIV outcomes, nationally. Using qualitative methods, we investigated how primarily African American, HIV-positiv…
