Impact of a multilevel HIV prevention programme on adolescent girls and young women’s empowerment for risk reduction
Empowerment is key to person-centered HIV prevention. This study aims to evaluate the extent to which the Determined, Resilient, Empowered, AIDS-free, Mentored, Safe (DREAMS) Partnership promotes empowerment of adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in Kenya. We conducted a mixed-methods study to examine DREAMS influence on empowerment precursors (resources, agency, institutional structures) and outcomes, guided by Kabeer’s framework for women’s…
The Global Task Force for Chronic Pain in People with HIV (PWH)
Chronic pain is a common comorbidity in people with HIV (PWH), with prevalence estimates of 25-85%. Research in this area is growing, but significant gaps remain. A Global Task Force of HIV experts was organized to brainstorm a scientific agenda and identify measurement domains critical to advancing research in this field. Experts were identified through literature searches and snowball sampling. Two online questionnaires were developed by Task F…
“I have failed to separate my HIV from this pain”
Pain is a highly prevalent and burdensome symptom among people with HIV (PWH). This study aims to identify how the experience of living with HIV and chronic pain influences pain beliefs, health-seeking and pain management. Thirty-nine purposively sampled PWH with chronic pain (sample characteristics = 61% women, 79% Black, Asian and minority ethnic groups, 18% men who have sex with men, 45-54 median age category) participated in focus groups in L…
Effects of a multimedia campaign on HIV self-testing and PrEP outcomes among young people in South Africa
INTRODUCTION: Innovative HIV technologies can help to reduce HIV incidence, yet uptake of such tools is relatively low among young people. To create awareness and demand among adolescents and young adults, a new campaign of the pan-African MTV Shuga series ('Down South 2'; DS2), featured storylines and messages about HIV self-testing (HIVST) and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) through television, radio and accompanying multimedia activities in 20…
It is guiding us to protect ourselves
This study explores how and why young people engage with MTV Shuga , a popular mass media campaign in South Africa, to understand what makes effective HIV edutainment. Young MTV Shuga viewers from the Eastern Cape, South Africa and their parents participated in remote individual interviews and focus groups in 2020. Qualitative data were transcribed and analysed using a thematic iterative approach. Young participants engaged with MTV Shuga for rel…
Community health worker home visiting in deeply rural South Africa
Home visiting by community health workers (CHW) improves child outcomes in efficacy trials, there is however limited evidence of impact evaluating CHW programmes when operating outside of a research project. A CHW programme, previously demonstrated efficacious in a peri-urban township, was evaluated in a deeply rural context in a non-randomised comparative cohort study. Two non-contiguous, rural areas in the Eastern Cape of South Africa of about …
Community health workers impact on maternal and child health outcomes in rural South Africa – a non-randomized two-group comparison study
The impact of CHWs in a rural area was less pronounced than in peri-urban areas. CHWs are likely to need enhanced support and supervision in the challenging rural context
