Description

Doyal brings together findings from a wide range of empirical studies spanning the social sciences to explore experiences of HIV positive people across the world.

A proper understanding of these commonalities and differences will be essential if future strategies are to be effective in mitigating the effects of HIV and AIDS.  Read more...
