A Qualitative Assessment of “Generacion Actual”
The high HIV prevalence among men who have sex with men and transgender women (TW) in Peru calls for innovative HIV prevention strategies to modify social norms, increase social support and promote empowerment and community mobilization. This qualitative article presents the synergistic processes that generated community mobilization throughout Generación Actual (GA, Current Generation in English), an HIV prevention intervention with gay men (GM)…
No seguir ciegos a la equidad
La Región de las Américas ha experimentado históricamente desigualdades sociales enraizadas en el colonialismo, las cuales se reflejan y reproducen en el ámbito de la salud. La incursión de la pandemia de COVID-19 afectó a toda la Región, pero golpeó con mayor fuerza a los grupos socialmente más desaventajados, y agravó las inequidades en salud. Bajo la premisa que las pandemias no son fenómenos socialmente neutrales, en este informe especial se …

Defining success with HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis
Introduction To date, six clinical trials have explored the efficacy of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) against HIV infection using oral tenofovir and/or emtricitabine/tenofovir [1–6]. Efficacy ranged from 0 to 75% [7], the variation of which can largely be explained by differences in PrEP adherence [8]. Efficacy data directly correlate with the objective adherence measures in those studies, and efficacy estimates were between 90 and 100% when ad…

National and subnational HIV/Aids coordination
BACKGROUND: A coordinated response to HIV/AIDS remains one of the 'grand challenges' facing policymakers today. Global health initiatives (GHIs) have the potential both to facilitate and exacerbate coordination at the national and subnational level. Evidence of the effects of GHIs on coordination is beginning to emerge but has hitherto been limited to single-country studies and broad-brush reviews. To date, no study has provided a focused synthes…
Effect of a Community Popular Opinion Leader HIV/STI Intervention on Stigma in Urban, Coastal Peru
Evaluating interventions that reduce HIV stigma may help to craft effective stigma-reduction programs. This study evaluates the effects of a community popular opinion leader HIV/STI intervention on stigma in urban, coastal Peru. Mixed effects modeling was used to analyze data on 3,049 participants from the Peru site of the NIHM collaborative trial. Analyses looked at differences between the comparison and intervention groups on a stigma index fro…
Behavioural strategies to reduce HIV transmission
Influencia del contexto sociocultural en la percepción del riesgo y la negociación de protección en hombres homosexuales pobres de la costa peruana
Este trabajo utiliza un enfoque del riesgo concebido, no como una acción individual, sino tomando su dimensión social. Busca analizar las diferentes formas en que el contexto sociocultural, relacionado a la homofobia internalizada y a las normas de género hegemónicas, permite la construcción de barreras en la percepción del riesgo. Estas barreras impiden la negociación de protección entre hombres homosexuales que han asumido una identidad de géne…
Vulnerability and sexual risks
Young people constitute a priority for sexual health research, policy and planning. Many studies, however, regard youth as a homogeneous group defined by developmental stages and their problems as inherent rather than factors resulting from structural vulnerability. Ethnographic data from this study provided strong evidence of the inappropriateness, in prevention interventions, of the concept of 'young people' as a group defined only by age and g…
Alternative sexualities and changing sexual cultures among Latin American men
The research on male homosexuality and alternative sexual cultures among Latin American men is one of the richest sources of data and cross-cultural analysis on sexuality, sexual identities and sexual communities anywhere in the world. New research includes not only an ongoing concern to describe the distinct contours of different social and cultural constructions of sexual identity (a concern that has been evident in this field for 3 decades), b…
