Determinants of participation in WORTH Yetu economic empowerment intervention among caregivers of orphaned and vulnerable children in Tanzania: A longitudinal multivariable logistic regression analysi…
Background Orphaned and Vulnerable Children (OVC) are disproportionately found in economically disadvantaged households, where the added burden of caregiving often exacerbates financial hardship. In response, economic empowerment programmes have been recommended as a key strategy to enhance household economic stability and resilience. However, there is a limited understanding of the factors affecting participation in such programmes across differ…

Determinants of viral load suppression among orphaned and vulnerable children living with HIV on ART in Tanzania
To advance viral suppression, efforts should be made to ensure that all OVCLHIV are reached by community-based interventions as well as integrating food support in HIV treatment interventions
Factors affecting caregivers’ participation in support groups for people living with HIV in Tanzania
Introduction Support groups for people living with HIV (PLHIV) are essential for increasing adherence, retention, addressing their psychosocial needs and improving patient literacy. However, factors that influence participation of caregivers living with HIV (LHIV) in these groups are scarcely documented, particularly for those caring for orphans and vulnerable children (OVC). Methods This study used baseline data collected between 1st October 202…
The Catechism through Andean Eyes: Reflections on Post-Tridentine Reform in Inca Garcilaso de la Vega's Comentarios reales
The depiction of Andean religion in the Comentarios reales de los incas (1609, 1617) has centered on Garcilaso de la Vega's providential interpretation of Inca pagan governance and the influence of the Christian humanist traditions that he mastered as an adult in Spain. However, scholars have not adequately recognized his attention to the ecclesiastical debates regarding the persistence of Inca cult beliefs and practices in the colonial Andean so…
Rates and Determinants of Retention on ART Among Orphans and Vulnerable Children Living With HIV in Tanzania
Despite the global progress in response to HIV and AIDS, notable challenges remain for children, especially identification, linkage, and retention in HIV care and treatment services. To succeed in pediatric HIV programming requires the linkage and retention of the children in those services over time. This study assessed the level of retention to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and its associated factors among orphans and vulnerable children living …
Hunger and Adherence to Antiretroviral Therapy: Learning From HIV Positive Caregivers of Orphans and Vulnerable Children in Tanzania
The association between hunger and adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is less known especially in vulnerable populations receiving HIV care and treatment services. Caregivers of orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) are vulnerable and likely to experience hunger due to additional economic pressure in caring for OVC. Using data from the community–based, USAID–funded Kizazi Kipya project, this study assesses the association between hunger an…

ART use and associated factors among HIV positive caregivers of orphans and vulnerable children in Tanzania
Although nearly all the caregivers LHIV in the current study were on ART (96.4%), more efforts are needed to achieve universal coverage. The unreached segments of the population LHIV, even if small, may lead to worse health outcomes, and also spur further spread of the HIV epidemic due to unachieved viral suppression. Targeting caregivers in urban areas, food insecure households, who are uninsured, and those with mental or physical disability can…

Allies at Odds: The Andean Church and its Indigenous Agents, 1583-1671
Alternately viewed as servants of evangelization or the plotters of its demise, indios ladinos, native Andeans who mediated contact between the Catholic authorities and indigenous communities, are often omitted from histories of the Spanish spiritual conquest in the New World. Overshadowed by the more powerful European clergy, the experiences of these native assistants--the duties they performed, the historical mechanisms by which they learned Sp…

More Ladino than Necessary’: Indigenous Litigants and the Language Policy Debate in Mid-Colonial Peru
In 1634, the young Andean noble Rodrigo de Guzman Rupaychagua left his home in Huamantanga, in the central Peruvian highland province of Canta, and set off southwest to the capital of Lima, where h
Unreliable Confessions: Khipus in the Colonial Parish
The historiography of the book in the age of Spanish imperial expansionism has traditionally viewed printed works as repressive instruments of colonial domination that forcefully supplanted the native Americans' non-alphabetic vehicles of memory and communication. Accounts of the Europeans' wholesale destruction of native holy objects and material forms of expression bespeak the undisputable role of books in the Spanish colonization of indigenous…
