HIV/AIDS

I have been extensively involved in policy development, programmatic activities and monitoring and evaluation with regard to HIV/AIDS using innovative approaches to assess prevention, care and treatment. Much of this work has been done for PEPFAR and involves accessing highly vulnerable, marginal and mobile groups. This requires extremely sensitive, rights-based approaches given the often high degrees of stigmatisation. In addition, my work has focused upon the Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission and facilitating access to other reproductive health services (such as family planning) by those living with HIV/AIDS.
