Publications


The Centre for Research in HIV and AIDS promotes scholarly writing, broadly related to HIV in Context. It does this through encouraging people to publish, especially arising from the Centre's symposia and the work undertaken in its projects - and through holding writing retreats where various resources and support is available - not least of which is uninterrupted time.

Working papers


The HIV-in-Context Working Papers seek and contribute to engage scholarship and debate that understands and addresses HIV in context. They include a range of genres, from state-of-the-art reviews of the literature to theoretical or methodological think pieces to reflect and experimental contributions from scholars, educators, practitioners, activists and policy makers. The opinions expressed in the Working Papers are those of the authors alone.
