| Summary |
The aim of this report was to give a brief update on AIDS and traditional medicine in Africa, and to review initiatives that have attempted collaboration between traditional and biomedical practitioners for HIV prevention. There is, however, a death of research actually testing the impact of involving traditional healers in HIV prevention efforts. Most reports even evaluation reports often state only achievements and findings. This review first looked as broadly as possible at all interventions involving traditional healers in HIV/AIDS prevention and care in sub-Saharan Africa. Eight projects that most closely met UNAIDS Best Practice criteria (effective and ethical interventions that are efficient, sustainable and relevant for HIV prevention in the resource- constrained settings of sub Saharan Africa) were then selected and compared. |
