本研究的目的是评估乌干达卡巴罗莱地区中学艾滋病毒预防策略的可用性水平，以便为加强艾滋病毒预防和社会心理支持的干预措施设计提供信息。卡巴罗莱地区的八所中学采用了定量和定性研究方法，以建立可用的艾滋病毒预防和社会心理支持服务。对 355 名 12-24 岁的学生进行了问卷调查。此外，我们还与教育服务提供商进行了 20 名关键知情人访谈。使用 Epi-data 分析定量数据，通过主题内容分析分析定性数据。八所学校中有七所至少制定了一项艾滋病毒预防战略。五所学校各有两名教师接受了艾滋病毒预防培训。没有学校配备接受过艾滋病毒预防、护理和支持培训的护士。教育服务提供者对艾滋病毒预防支持和照顾感染艾滋病毒的学生的了解有限。我们发现学生了解如何感染艾滋病毒。学校学生报告的艾滋病毒预防服务包括：教师和嘉宾的讲座（19%）、艾滋病毒预防相关信息的戏剧（16%）、同伴教育俱乐部（15%）、艾滋病毒讲习班和研讨会（8%）、艾滋病毒/艾滋病宣传（7%）、指导和咨询（6%）、复合语言谈话（5%）、禁欲讲座（6%）、让学生忙于体育活动（4%）、直言不讳（4%）。 63% 的人表示从各种来源收到了艾滋病毒阅读材料。预防学校学生艾滋病毒感染的任务仍然艰巨，对学生的干预措施有限。支持学校干预措施的努力应侧重于将艾滋病毒预防纳入学校课程，与同伴教育者以及在学校花大量时间与学生在一起的教育服务提供者合作。
The aim of this study was to assess the level of availability of HIV prevention strategies in secondary schools in Kabarole district, Uganda in order to inform the design of interventions to strengthen HIV Prevention and psychosocial support. Quantitative and qualitative research methods were used in eight secondary schools in Kabarole district to establish available HIV prevention and psychosocial support services. Questionnaires were administered to 355 students 12-24 years old. In addition, 20 Key Informant interviews were held with education service providers. Quantitative data was analyzed using Epi-data and qualitative data were analyzed by thematic content analysis. Seven of the eight schools had at least one HIV prevention strategy. Two teachers in each of the five schools had been trained in HIV prevention. No school had a nurse trained in HIV prevention, care and support. Education service providers had limited knowledge of HIV prevention support and care of students living with HIV. We found out that students had knowledge on how one can acquire HIV. HIV prevention services reported by students in schools included: talks from teachers and guests (19%), drama with HIV prevention related messages (16%), peer education clubs (15%), workshops and seminars on HIV (8%), sensitization about HIV/AIDS (7%), guidance and counseling (6%), talking compounds- (5%), abstinence talks (6%), keeping students busy in sports (4%), straight talk (4%). Sixty three percent reported receiving HIV reading materials from various sources. Preventing HIV infection among students in schools is still demanding with limited interventions for students. Efforts to support school interventions should focus on including HIV Prevention in the school curriculum, working with peer educators as well as education service providers who spend much of the time with the students while at school.
