Summary View help for Summary

This project examines the relationship of HIV vulnerability to changes in economic environment and food security in rural Malawi. A quasi-experimental nonequivalent control group longitudinal study is conducted to study the impacts of a large development and food security intervention on HIV vulnerability and economic outcomes. 600 participants are recruited from three areas in central Malawi and are interviewed at baseline and three yearly follow-ups. Surveys with 1000 randomly-selected households are also conducted at baseline and at 36-month follow up. A end-of program evaluation consisting of qualitative interviews is also conducted.
