Mobility, Sexuality and Aids
This volume challenges common assumptions about mobility, HIV and AIDS.

Families, children, migration and Aids
Migration is very often a family affair, and often involves children, directly or indirectly. It may give rise to better quality of life for an entire family, or to bitter disappointment, and may also increase vulnerability to HIV and AIDS. This review, carried out for the Joint Learning Initiative on Children and AIDS, links the literature on "migration", on "HIV and AIDS" and on "families". Three themes are sketched: (1) As both HIV prevalence …

We clos…

HIV/Aids prevention for migrants and ethnic minorities
Social enquiry and HIV/Aids

This paper offers a critical review of some of the ways in which social enquiry has contributed to a better understanding of the epidemic and its dynamics, and has informed prevent…
