Pathways to Health Services for Crossborder Migrants Living with HIV
Nepalese and Bangladeshis at Home and in Destination Sites in India
This project brief explores the experiences of people living with HIV as they migrate. Drawing on small-scale qualitative studies in Bangladesh, India and Nepal, it explores their migration experiences and their patterns of HIV diagnosis and treatment. The brief then provides examples of the barriers they face in accessing health services at source and destination. This is followed by an outline of how the Enhancing Mobile Populations’ Access to HIV/AIDS Information and Services (EMPHASIS) project has addressed these barriers. It concludes with some recommendations.
