HIV and People on the Move: Risk and vulnerabilities of migrants and mobile populations in Southern Africa

The overall aim of this project was to share experiences and raise awareness about the issues of HIV, population mobility and migration in the Southern African region. This publication of the ‘Speak Your World Primer’ series is a summary report of a structured discussion on the AF-AIDS eForum.

The main themes of this discussion centered on how migration and population mobility leads to increased HIV vulnerability, conversely how HIV affects migration and mobility patterns, and the impact of the brain drain of healthcare professionals from Southern Africa. This document contains the experiences and voices of over 2500 people working and affected by HIV and AIDS in Southern Africa. This a joint publication of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and H&D Network.
