Excellent work, Charity!
Charity, thank you for sharing your research and for truly embodying global citizenship. I’m particularly interested in learning how trauma and mental health issues (in both populations) are being addressed. Are there anti-stigma strategies/interventions in place?
Charity–this is such important work. Thank you for sharing it with us! I have questions about the differences you found between rural and urban women living with HIV: were the stigmas very different based on location and did the women express the same concerns about making time for motherhood?
Charity, great work. Related to the stigma and motherhood theme, were there any comments made on associated stigma on their children?
This is a really interesting topic! Under “Emerging Themes From the Transcript” you mentioned role of society/relationships and gave an example of rural vs. urban. Are the stigma and discrimination different depending on living in a rural vs. urban area?
Thank you for sharing about such an important, yet often silenced, subject. I see you noted “making time for motherhood” as an overarching theme. How do gender roles and patriarchy intersect with and magnify HIV stigma?
Wow, Charity! Thank you for sharing such vital and impressive work with all of us! Given all that you’ve researched about the societal stigmas surrounding women suffering with HIV/AIDs in Rwanda, do you know of any concrete steps that can be taken–if any–to eliminate them?
Great job, Charity! Thank you so much for sharing this valuable work with us. As a prospective epidemiologist, I am particularly interested in infectious diseases and how different societies respond to them. I am wondering if you could elaborate more on some of the reasons that led to the community mistrust of Ebola responders in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
