HIV Project India
The subject of sexual health and HIV / AIDS is one that is rarely
discussed openly or in public in India, where attitudes to sex are
very different to our own. However, India has now identified that
the nation’s sexual health, and HIV / AIDS in particular,
are issues that need to be urgently addressed.
You will work with a local organisation that is conducting essential
research into sexual health issues in India and developing strategies
to help combat the spread of HIV and other sexually transmitted
infections.
Your work will include working with high risk groups, such as sex
workers and gay men (officially termed 'men who have sex with men'
in India), to analyse the issues affecting their health. This may
include social attitudes to sex workers or the availability of condoms.
You will then work with these groups to identify lifestyle changes
they can make that will reduce their exposure to infection.
Part of the placement will also include working with school and
youth groups to increase awareness of sexual health issues and promote
safer sex practises.
This is unique programme and one which will give you a deeper understanding
of the issues relating to sexual health in India. It is important
that you approach this project with sensitivity and understanding.
The aim of this programme is to increase awareness and promote better
sexual health amongst people who may never have been given such
information before.
