概述 | Drawing on small-scale qualitative studies in Bangladesh, India and Nepal, this Project Briefing explores the experiences of people living with HIV as they migrate. |
摘要 | Migration from Nepal and Bangladesh to India dates back decades, with many people moving to find better work and livelihood opportunities. As they move they face risks, not least in relation to their health. As part of a five-year operations-research project, EMPHASIS (Enhancing Mobile Population’s Access to HIV and AIDS Information Services and Support) has explored the health and HIV and AIDS-related vulnerabilities of migrants as they cross borders, and has provided targeted interventions at source, transit and destination sites. This Project Briefing explores the experiences of people living with HIV (PLHIV) as they migrate. Drawing on small-scale qualitative studies in Bangladesh, India and Nepal, we explore their migration experiences and their patterns of HIV diagnosis and treatment. We then provide examples of the barriers they face in accessing health services (including antiretroviral therapy, care and support services) at source and destination. This is followed by an outline of how EMPHASIS has addressed these barriers. It concludes with some recommendations. |
