“…The audiences basically varied according to the community that was being addressed or the research area dealt with. HIV affected and infected people were featured mostly in the articles reviewed (Maticka-Tyndale, Wildish, & Gichuru, 2010; Nixon et al, 2013;Sodhi et al, 2011;van Zyl et al, 2014;Wanyama et al, 2012;Willms, Arratia, & Makondesa, 2004).…”

This review analyses research uptake methods which have been used by researchers in sub-Saharan Africa to determine which methods are effective for communities. The key area of thestudy is research uptake methods applicable at rural community level. The study analyses howeffective these methods are in getting research findings adopted by the community, stirringbehaviour change and raising awareness about a problem. The review makes recommendationsfor research projects that seek to conduct research uptake in the rural areas of sub-Saharan Africa.A systematic search for articles was done using Medline, PubMed and Google Scholar. Articleson the uptake of eco-health research findings at a community level were screened and analysedusing narrative synthesis. Results showed that strategies involving media, educational materialsand interpersonal communication with the communities worked most effectively. Some examplesof these were use of radio programmes, film productions, community theatre, field workers,community meetings, educational programmes, peer education and point of care displays. Thestudy concluded that to enhance research uptake in communities, innovative methods whichcapture the context of the communities involved need to be used. Selected strategies should usethe eco-health approach, engage the community and incorporate indigenous knowledge systems.

“…The use of electronic learning at schools to improve uptake of HIV and AIDS knowledge was identified in one study (van Zyl et al, 2014). In this study, e-learning was used as a way of ensuring that learners take interest in the knowledge they were being given about HIV and AIDS.…”

“…They identified insufficient HIV knowledge and risk perceptions, as posing major stumbling blocks to HIV/AIDS prevention in South Africa. While seeking for innovative approaches, Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in low and middle income countries (LMICs) were considered appropriate and showed potential to provide HIV/AIDS preventative education [ 3 , 4 , 5 ]. eHealth, an emerging field at the intersection of health informatics and public health, was identified by Eysenbach [ 6 ] as a suitable method of delivering health services and information through the use of ICTs.…”

“…In the South African context, few studies have been undertaken where these factors have been investigated. The South African Medical Research Council (MRC) showed how tailoring information according to the target groups’ information needs and preferences in an eHealth intervention, better recall and understanding of HIV/AIDS knowledge was achieved by pupils in an eLearning Web-based platform compared to classroom instruction [ 4 ]. In contrast, another South African eHealth study qualitatively explored the factors that would influence ICT acceptability in the form of telemedicine solutions in healthcare settings in the rural Eastern Cape Province [ 5 ].…”

eHealth has been identified as a useful approach to disseminate HIV/AIDS information. Together with Consumer Health Informatics (CHI), the Web-to-Public Knowledge Transfer Model (WPKTM) has been applied as a theoretical framework to identify consumer needs for AfroAIDSinfo, a South African Web portal. As part of the CHI practice, regular eSurveys are conducted to determine whether these needs are changing and are continually being met. eSurveys show high rates of satisfaction with the content as well as the modes of delivery. The nature of information is thought of as reliable to reuse; both for education and for referencing of information. Using CHI and the WPKTM as a theoretical framework, it ensures that needs of consumers are being met and that they find the tailored methods of presenting the information agreeable. Combining ICTs and theories in eHealth interventions, this approach can be expanded to deliver information in other sectors of public health.

“…• A estratégia educativa baseada na prevenção positiva produziu uma série de efeitos positivos nas atitudes e nos comportamentos dos jovens frente ao HIV/aids; (Givaudan et al, 2008;Huang et al, 2008;Borawski et al, 2015) O conhecimento específico sobre HIV/aids foi avaliado em todos os estudos, apresentando aumento significativo após as estratégias educativas, principalmente nas pesquisas que utilizaram comparações entre grupo intervenção e grupo controle (Brown et al, 1991;Kindeberg et al, 1994;Cartagena et al, 2006;LaChausse, 2006;Anderman et al, 2011;Van Zyl et al, 2014).…”

Gostaria de agradecer, primeiramente, a minha família, meus pais e meus avós que me acompanham desde os meus primeiros passos, que torceram por mim e vibram a cada conquista.À minha irmã, que está sempre ao meu lado e me acompanhou durante toda essa jornada.Ao meu amigo Nilson, pelos mais de dez anos de amizade, por todas as histórias que vivemos e os momentos que compartilhamos.Ao meu amigo Giovanni, por ter acompanhado minha saga, principalmente diante de todas as dificuldades vivenciadas e por ter me apoiado.Ao meu amigo Marcos, minha dupla dinâmica dessa vida acadêmica, que me ajudou e tem me ajudado muito, e foi fundamental para a minha inserção nesse universo de luta contra o HIV/aids.A minha amiga Natália, que tem me apoiado estando presente nos momentos alegres e difíceis, com todas as nossas incertezas, mas está sempre disponível e ajudando a encontrar uma boa descontração para aliviar a rotina estressante.A todos os amigos que a universidade me deu e tiveram um papel essencial em mais uma etapa da minha formação.A minha orientadora Lucia, pela liberdade de conduzir um projeto conforme os meus planos, por todo apoio, suporte e esclarecimentos.A toda a equipe da Escola de Enfermagem da Univeridade de São Paulo, que foram e continuam sendo pessoas importantes para o meu processo de formação e de todos que passaram e passarão por esta escola, minha segunda casa de coração.A todos os professores e professoras que fizeram e ainda farão parte da minha vida; os pilares da educação que contribuíram para minha formação acadêmica e cidadã, sendo facilitadores no processo de aprendizagem. Sem essas pessoas, o trajeto se torna muito mais difícil.A todos os profissionais que fizeram parte deste processo e ajudaram a moldar a enfermeira que sou hoje.Aos amigos e familiares que não estão mais presentes em vida, mas que de alguma forma estão me acompanhando e seguem na minha lembrança.Ao CNPq pelo suporte financeiro que foi primordial para que este projeto se tornasse realidade.A todas as deusas e deuses que me guiam nessa arte de viver.Ao meu coelho Bolotinha, que, mesmo sem saber, tem sido meu companheiro carinhoso, o pontinho de conforto que me faz um bem enorme.O conhecimento emerge apenas através da invenção e da reinvenção, através da inquietante, impaciente, contínua e esperançosa investigação que os seres humanos buscam no mundo, com o mundo e uns com os outros.
