1. The interface between biomedical and traditional health practitioners in STI and HIV/AIDS care : study on intersectoral collaboration in Zambia
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to explore potential opportunities for and obstacles to collaboration between biomedical and traditional health practitioners (BHPs and THPs) and to test a dialogue nurturing intervention in order to improve attitudes and increase collaborative activities pertinent for STIs and HIV/AIDS care in Zambia. The specific objectives were: to explore the local communities views on prerequisites (or preconditions) to collaboration between biomedical and traditional health providers with regards to STIs and HIV/AIDS care (I); to explore BHPs and THPs' experiences of and attitudes toward collaboration and to identify obstacles and potential opportunities for them to collaborate with regard to care for patients with STIs and HIV/AIDS (II); to explore biomedical and traditional health practitioners perceptions of good STIs and HIV/AIDS care and their opinions on weaknesses in the services they provide to patients with STIs and HIV/AIDS (III); to assess the changes in attitudes to and practices of collaboration among a set of BHPs and THPs following a participatory intervention in the Zambian city of Ndola, focusing on STIs and HIV/AIDS care (IV).
