“If I wasn’t a pastor, I would be telling them about condoms, contraceptives and PrEP”—conflicts, dilemmas and credibility
BACKGROUND: Religious leaders (RLs) form an influential group in Eswatini. This study explores their understanding and acceptance of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), with a view to improve PrEP service delivery for those who would benefit from PrEP the most. METHODS: We conducted online and in-person in-depth interviews with (n=26) purposefully selected RLs (n=12 female and n=14 male) from Eswatini. Data were managed using NVivo V.12 and coded in…
Cultural Repertoires and Situated Selections as an Alternative Framework to Hegemonic Masculinities
Since the 1980s studies on men have frequently utilized Connell’s framework of hegemonic masculinities.

This led us to …

Community leaders feel they are important communicators of cul…

People in receipt of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for the prevention of HIV in Sub-Saharan Africa often discontinue taking the medication. We conducted 27 semi-structured interviews with men and women who had started PrEP but did not return to the clinic for a refill after a 1, 2 or 3-month period. These 'discontinuation' clients were enrolled in a PrEP demonstration project for the general population in nurse-led, public-sector, primary-care …
