Children get sick all the time”
The analysis of case studies, interviews and observations shows how mothers in a rural area struggle and often fail to receive care at public healthcare facilities. Health service delivery could be organized in a manner that responds better to the needs of these mothers in terms of both access and retention
Occupational citizenship
Health workers are an overlooked category in the growing literature on health and citizenship. In this article I describe a 2012-2013 nationwide conflict in the public health care sector in Burkina Faso to explore how ideas about citizenship were mobilized in a situation of political agitation. I examine how public health care is done in a context of material deprivation, technological shortage, and great demand from the population. Three distinc…
Ebola vu de loin
Bien que la maladie à virus Ebola ait épargné le Burkina Faso pendant l’épidémie qui a frappé l’Afrique de l’Ouest, elle a tout de même suscité chez les travailleurs de la santé publique un certain nombre de craintes et d’interrogations, notamment sur les questions de sécurité et d’équité. Issu d’une enquête ethnographique dans trois Centres de Santé et de Promotion Sociale (CSPS) dans la Province du Boulgou au Burkina Faso, sur les moyens pratiq…
Maternal healthcare in context
Tavshedens Dilemma
Michel Foucault har i sine analyser af forholdet mellem viden og magt beskrevet, hvordan seksualitet siden victoriatiden har været genstand for en diskursiv eksplosion. Med den globale aids-epidemi har verden oplevet endnu en højlydt italesættelse af seksualitet i det offentlige rum, ofte tilskyndet af de internationale organisationer, der finansierer oplysningsprogrammerne. Erkendelse, bekendelse og åbenhed har været grundelementer i mange hiv/a…
Children at Risk
This paper describes the effect of parental HIV on the life of children in Benin. A total of 2,043 children aged from 10 to 16 were surveyed on health, diet, violence, school attendance and psychosocial state. The results indicate that, while Beninese children who have had a parent living with HIV are not necessarily subjected to different economic and material conditions than those who have not, they do experience a much greater lack of psychoso…
Men in Uniforms
The objective of this study was to provide an in-depth description and analysis of the lived experiences of men in uniforms in Western Rwanda with a view to the links between notions of masculinity, sexual practices and the spread of HIV. A total of 182 members of different uniformed cadres participated in focus group discussions, which were triangulated with findings from discussions held with 136 participants representing other local groups suc…
Muted voices
This article explores the discrepancies between the vocal public discourse on HIV/AIDS and sexuality as generally encouraged by policy-makers and donor communities in Africa, and the often hushed voices of their target groups: young people in African communities. Based on fieldwork among urban youth in Senegal and Burkina Faso, we describe the silence of young people with regard to HIV/AIDS and sexuality as a social phenomenon, with focus given t…
Role of women as a motivative and collective force in international development
Women play, or have the potential to play, a key role in decision making and implementation within the areas of food and water security, environmental protection, energy saving, health, population, and the improvement of the level of education
