Produktbeschreibung
This book embodies nearly 10 years of experience working in HIV prevention, treatment and care. The seed for this publication was planted in the hills and valleys of the former Nyanza province, Kenya during my stint as an HIV Behaviour Change Officer with an international development agency. The seed germinated in the course of a string of consultancies on HIV care in Nyanza and Eastern Provinces. The seed blossomed during my doctoral studies. The book, therefore, epitomizes the culmination of a long-winded desire to provide an encyclopedic account of what HIV means to people diagnosed HIV positive and how such people go about living with HIV. I recommend the information in this book to postgraduate students, academic faculty, civil society, service providers and policy makers. Its rich insights, generated from first hand personal accounts of people living with HIV, can provide enormous evidence towards the design, implementation and evaluation of HIV prevention, care and treatment programmes.
