Abstract:
Traditional healers occupy a unique and critical location in the fight against HIV/AIDS in Uganda, and anthropologists are specially positioned to highlight the benefits of involving them in this fight. Here we describe the results that healer organizations are having on efforts to train and organize healers of all kinds in Uganda, in the fight against HIV/AIDS and other diseases. In Uganda, we can see that traditional healers are increasingly organized into networks or member organizations, forming groups with a stronger, louder, and more coherent voice than ever previously seen among healers

The impact of the widespread availability of antiretroviral therapy (ART) on the human immunodeficiency virus and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) related attitudes, behaviours and practices of the general population in Sub-Saharan Africa is understudied.
