Working Group on Social and Political Aspects of AIDS in Uganda
Activities
Peer Support:
Members of the working group are encouraged to provide
peer support and collegial reviewing of other members work-in-progress.
At our workshops, we will provide opportunities for members to link-up
with peers who are best able to offer support.
Announcements of Opportunities:
Any member is welcome to post
announcements for scholarships, fellowships, conferences, employment or
other research-oriented opportunities for fellow members. Please
remember that deadlines are often short, so post your announcements in
good time to allow interested respondents to reply.
Networking and Referrals for Research Assistance/Translation in
Uganda:
Interested members and visitors are invited to contact Jenipher Twebaze
who will gladly network you with our members who are available for
contract work as research assistants and translators. Within our
network at the Child Health and Development Centre, we have a number of
experienced women and men who speak the many languages used in
Uganda
and have training with quantitative and qualitative methods. Child
Health-based researchers have undertaken diverse projects for
international and national scholars.
Facilitation:
If you or your organization would like to hold an event
or speaker in
Kampala on the social and political aspects of AIDS, the
network will be happy to facilitate your contacts through Child Health
and Development Centre. Please contact Jenipher Twebaze who will assist
you.
Activism:
The working group, its workshops, seminars and website aspire
to provide a non-affiliated forum for sharing ideas and experiences that
will support the people living with HIV and AIDS and those caring for
them. If we can provide a sounding board, public opportunity for
brainstorming, information resource or research network for activist and
practitioners based in
Uganda, please contact Jenipher Twebaze.
