HIV - an individual focus from a global perspective

About this programme

The course is aimed at those who have an interest in HIV, human rights, and global health. You will gain an updated approach to HIV from both a clinical, research-based, and global socio-biological perspective. The course analyzes both the individual's and society's role in HIV prevention and treatment and how it relates to knowledge, attitudes, stigma, sexuality, gender roles, violence, addiction/drugs, economy, and social situation. HIV will be discussed from various perspectives, starting from human rights, philosophy and morality, socioeconomics, as well as cultural and biological myths. The course also provides medical orientation with the latest news from HIV research, for example research on vaccines and cures. We collaborate with the HIV organization Noaks Ark. The course's lectures/seminars are held at Posithiva Gruppen one evening per week.
