HIV and “People on the Move”
Mobile, migrant and displaced people require specific attention with regard to HIV vulnerability, including information and services tailored to their social, cultural and economic backgrounds and to the phase of mobility. Too few studies have systematically documented the needs of people on the move in this regard or evaluated the existing responses to meeting these needs. Most studies and programme descriptions focus on specific populations at …
Mobility, Sexuality and Aids
This volume challenges common assumptions about mobility, HIV and AIDS. A series of interlinked chapters prepared by international experts explores the experiences of people who are mobile as they relate to sexuality and to HIV susceptibility and impact. The various chapters discuss the factors that contribute to the vulnerability of different mobile groups but also examine the ways in which agency, resilience and adaptation shape lived experienc…
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 …
Strengthening families to support children affected by HIV and Aids
This paper provides an overview of the arguments for the central role of families, defined very broadly, and we emphasise the importance of efforts to strengthen families to support children affected by HIV and AIDS. We draw on work conducted in the Joint Learning Initiative on Children and AIDS's Learning Group 1: Strengthening Families, as well as published data and empirical literature to provide the rationale for family strengthening. We clos…

HIV/Aids prevention for migrants and ethnic minorities
Social enquiry and HIV/Aids
Nearly a decade and a half into the AIDS epidemic, there are reasons for cautious optimism, both in relation to prevention and care, and with respect to the capacity of social enquiry to make a meaningful contribution to the development of programmes and interventions. 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…
Aids prevention, Stigma and migrant status
This article discusses how stigma has been applied to disease and also to foreigners, especially during epidemics. Foreigners, or migrants, fit particularly well into AIDS stigma, being both objects and originators of the generalised reaction: ‘it's somebody else's problem’. Material is presented from a European Community Concerted Action assessing AIDS/HIV prevention which surveyed programmes for short‐ and long‐term guest populations and ethnic…
