Exploring community perceptions of gender roles as a predisposing factor in schistosomiasis infection in southwestern Uganda
Introduction : Schistosomiasis, a neglected tropical disease impacts people of all genders and ages. Studies done on gender as a risk factor in schistosomiasis infection and control have not considered what the men and women in schistosomiasis endemic communities think about gender roles as a contributing factor to infection and control. We explored the perceptions of endemic farming (Kyaterekera) and fishing (Ndaiga) communities along Lake Alber…

Positive aspects like diverse FP methods and physical accessibility provide a foundation for targeted intervent…
