Research

I'm looking at the use of participatory methods in HIV prevention work in Uganda - whether these participatory methods really do get people involved in the planning and design of prevention work or not, and how people react to being asked to participate in discussions about sexual behaviour and risk - areas which are often not discussed openly.
