Intervention(s)
|
Four interventions, alone and in combination:
1. Optimises local private-public networks to reduce HIV risk in favour of those who cannot implement their prevention choices
2. Sexual violence education through schools, youth groups, granny groups, church groups and local radio, geared to generate endogenous community-specific solutions to reduce sexual violence
3. Focuses on empowerment of the choice disabled through the Organisational Workshop approach
4. Promotion of male circumcision
The interventions will run concurrently for three years, with a follow-up survey in the fourth year.
|
|
Primary Outcome(s)
|
The 2007 baseline and follow-up survey in year 4 will measure reduced sexual violence and HIV infection in women aged 18 - 29 years. Follow-up of a male (18 - 29 years) cohort established in 2008 will establish the impact of promoting male circumcision (MC), alone and in combination with other activities.
All will be measured in the fourth year.
|
|
Secondary Outcome(s)
|
All will be measured in the fourth year:
1. Protective knowledge
2. Attitudes
3. Subjective norms
4. Intention to change
5. Agency
6. Discussion of prevention
7. Practices related to sexual violence
Likely side effects of the intervention include reduced criminal delinquency and substance abuse.
