Adolescents’ and young women’s perspectives on participation in biomedical clinical trials for HIV prevention in Tanzania and India
Adolescent girls and young women are disproportionately affected by HIV in many lower-resource settings. These individuals are often excluded from early clinical trials for new HIV prevention products, thus delaying potential access. We explored adolescent girls' and young women's (AGYW) perceptions of HIV risk, perspectives on trial participation, and understanding of research concepts. Individual or repeated in-depth interviews were conducted w…
Social support and managing schizophrenia in Tanzania
Background: In lower-resource settings like Tanzania, people living with schizophrenia (PWS) rely on their families for much of their social support, thus leading family members to become their main caregivers. How PWS and their families understand and implement social support can profoundly impact recovery pathways. This study examines how PWS and caregivers of PWS in Tanzania describe receiving and giving social support. We describe, from the p…
Timeliness of Delivery Care and Maternal and Neonatal Health Outcomes in Private Facilities in Masaka Area, Uganda
Impact evaluation of a maternal and neonatal health training intervention in private Ugandan facilities
Global and country-specific targets for reductions in maternal and neonatal mortality in low-resource settings will not be achieved without improvements in the quality of care for optimal facility-based obstetric and newborn care. This global call includes the private sector, which is increasingly serving low-resource pregnant women. The primary aim of this study was to estimate the impact of a clinical and management-training programme delivered…

Depression and Sexual Trauma Among Adolescent Girls and Young Women in HIV-Prevention Research in Tanzania
Stakeholder acceptability of adolescent participation in clinical trials for biomedical HIV prevention products
Researchers and advocates have increasingly called for adolescent participation in clinical trials for new HIV prevention products, particularly adolescent girls in areas most affected by the epidemic. However, recent trials have highlighted the challenges for young women and adolescents to be able to effectively use new products that require daily dosing. This analysis provides a highly relevant context for this challenging environment by examin…
Understanding the financial lives of female sex workers in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire
Many women's decisions about whether and how to participate in sex work are driven by financial considerations. Despite the recognized importance of economic factors in HIV risk among female sex workers (FSWs), many HIV prevention programs focus narrowly on sexual risk behaviors. We collected data on the financial practices of FSWs in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, to better inform economic strengthening programs for HIV risk reduction with this populat…
Identifying factors that influence pregnancy intentions
In developing-country settings, pregnancy intentions are often assessed using a series of questions from the Demographic and Health Surveys, yet research conducted in several countries yields conflicting results regarding these questions' ability to predict pregnancy. Conducted in Malawi and South Africa, this study identified individual, partner and societal factors that influence desire for pregnancy, and women's ability to achieve their intent…
