One of the core objectives of establishing the West African regional integration body is to promote cross-border trade and cooperation among member states. The movement of people across border and around border regions and towns plays an important role in facilitating the transmission of HIV. However, little is known about the pathways through which participation in the cross-border tomatoes trade between Ghana and Burkina-Faso leads to higher risk behavior in women traders. This study explored the perspectives of women traders on circumstances that may facilitate HIV acquisition and transmission in high HIV prevalence areas in Navrongo, in the Kessena-Nankana East and in Paga, in the Kassena - Nankana West districts which are the hub of informal tomatoes trade between Ghana and Burkina-Faso.

Though she did not consider it stealing for passing through the window to go and sleep with the man, she could not withstand the painful nature of the sexual intercourse.Cedi jwogi-m ye mole?¿
