Factors encouraging or discouraging men in the informal sector to attend HIV counselling and testing (HCT) in South Africa : a case study of PretoriaRadingwana, Tiny Mashiane 02 1900 (has links)
In English / The purpose of this study was to establish factors affecting the participation of men working in the informal sector economy of South Africa in HIV counselling and testing (HCT) or voluntary counselling and testing (VCT). This includes the exploration of reasons for acceptance and non-acceptance of HIV testing, knowledge and perceptions about HIV testing and behaviours and attitudes towards HIV testing. Data was collected through a structured questionnaire and a sample of fifty (50) men was purposively selected. It was found that the reasons for acceptance of HIV testing are satisfactory and reasons for non-acceptance are still a concern, and that several issues such as education about HIV testing and HIV in general still need to be addressed. Most of the respondents had undergone testing for HIV, but there is still a stigma attached to HIV testing. / Sociology / M. A. (Social Behaviour Studies in HIV/AIDS)

Perceptions of the role of church-based programmes in addressing HIV and AIDS : a study in the Durban inner-city areaCele, Mfiseleni Sylvester 10 1900 (has links)
A structured questionnaire was used to survey the perceptions of programme
coordinators, fieldworkers and beneficiaries of the role of church-based
programmes in addressing HIV and AIDS in the inner-city of Durban. One
hundred and ninety two respondents were recruited from seventeen churches.
Findings indicate that fear of HIV- and AIDS-related stigma and discrimination
abound. The material and spiritual roles of church-based programmes in
addressing the needs of people infected with HIV and affected by HIV and AIDS
were stressed by the respondents. Whereas programme coordinators were well
informed about HIV and AIDS, information that can dispel fears about stigma and
correct myths about HIV-transmission should be tailored to reach ordinary men
and women. It is recommended that further research be conducted on the
preventive aspects of church-based programmes in the Durban inner-city. / Sociology / M.A. (Social Behaviour Studies in HIV/AIDS)
