A Gender Transformative Implementation Strategy With Providers to Improve HIV Outcomes in Uganda

A Gender Transformative Implementation Strategy With Providers to Improve HIV

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 25 Apr 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Gender norms embedded in the health-system and broader community shape patient-provider relationships in ways that may undermine the provision of antiretroviral treatment (ART) counseling for men and women in Uganda. This study seeks to develop and evaluate the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of an innovative gender transformative implementation strategy to improve HIV provider capacity for equitable HIV care and ART adherence counseling.
