Electronic Dose Monitoring Feedback (EMF) with Youth Living with HIV
Electronic dose monitoring with feedback (EMF) offers an opportunity to visualize daily dosing behaviors that can otherwise be difficult to appreciate. Visual displays, including early, on-time, late, or missed doses over time, can foster insights around patterns of dosing. Reactions to seeing these patterns among youth with HIV (YWH) who struggle with adherence are important to consider with EMF. YWH (ages 14-25) participating in the ATN152 TERA…
Heterosexual ‘situationships’ and HIV exposure for sexual and gender minority persons assigned female at birth in the Western Kenyan context
Sexual and gender minority persons assigned female at birth (hereafter referred to as lesbian, bisexual, queer, transgender, intersex, gender non-conforming, non-binary and other sexual and gender minority persons, or LBQT+ persons) experience extreme vulnerabilities to negative sexual health outcomes due to intersectional stigma in the Western Kenyan context. To navigate the structural violence created by this intersectional stigma, many LBQT+ p…

US Right-Wing, Pro-Family Movements in East Africa
Neocolonial US right-wing actors have targeted sexual and reproductive health and rights and sexual and gender minority rights in Kenya, influencing support for the Family Protection Bill, which is currently sitting in the Kenyan parliament and, if enacted, would further criminalize sexual and gender minority persons. We focus on how sexual and gender minority persons assigned female sex at birth in Kenya are at the intersection of these assaults…
Demonizing the Priestess and the Lesbian
Bridging insights from ethnographic research with lesbian, bisexual, queer, transgender, and gender nonconforming individuals assigned female at birth in Ghana in 2015, as well as historical context, this article explores the colonial history of social violence in Ghana while engaging with chapter 4 of Nathanael Homewood’s Seductive Spirits, titled “Scenes of Struggle.” The chapter focuses on the social violence resulting from Pentecostal “delive…
Empowerment for Us by Us (E4UBU)”
Lesbian, bisexual, queer, trans and other gender diverse persons assigned female at birth (heretofore referred to as "LBQT+ persons") in Western Kenya experience intersectional oppression and stigma. This stigma can manifest in acts of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) and sexual and gender minority (SGM)-based violence, as well as various forms of discrimination-all of which have been linked to disproportionately higher levels of negative …
Proximal and distal minority stressors and mental health among young gay and bisexual men and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM) in Kisumu, Kenya
Young gay and bisexual men and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM) in Kenya experience pervasive intersectional stigma and discrimination, contributing to elevated levels of negative mental health symptoms. Grounded in the Minority Stress Model, this paper explores associations of proximal and distal minority stressors with three types of negative mental health outcomes among young HIV‐negative GBMSM ( n = 63) between the ages of 19–34 who pa…
