Adherence to anti-retroviral treatment amongst HIV positive gay men and other men who have sex with men in Tshwane

Master of Public Health - MPH / Gay men and other men who have sex with men (MSM) and a subset within this group
who are people who inject drugs (PWID) face difficulties when trying to access humanimmune deficiency virus (HIV)/ anti-retroviral treatment (ART) services and adhere to
ART, due to the intersecting forms of oppression they face. Current interventions to
address adherence to ART are mostly bio-medical in nature, and support the presumption
that individual-level factors are the most pertinent barriers to adherence to ART. This
mini-thesis presents findings from a qualitative study that explored individual, health
systems and structural factors that shape experiences of adherence to ART amongst gay
men and other MSM and a subset within this group who are PWID
