Dissertation Research: "Out of the Shadows": Democracy and HIV Risk in MoroccoTechnical descriptionThrough 12 months of fieldwork, combining network analysis, participant observation, interviews, and document analysis, this project draws on and contributes to science, technology, and society studies through an examination of Morocco's AIDS response at two levels of interaction: between locally-based NGOs and larger structures of AIDS governance; and between NGOs and their clients. A comparative ethnographic approach will yield rich data on how different NGOs solicit the participation of affected persons, formulate and enact public health interventions, produce knowledge about heath and disease, and influence the national AIDS response. Broader impactsInternational health organizations have argued that without greater efforts to manage AIDS in the Middle East and North Africa, the disease will exact a grave toll. Morocco presents a critical case study because its strategies to involve NGOs in AIDS governance are being promoted throughout the region. The objective of the project is to track the practical consequences of efforts to make public health science, policy and practice more responsive to the needs of affected populations. This research will also provide an important comparison for scholars doing work on participatory public health programs in other parts of the world.

论文研究：《走出阴影》：摩洛哥的民主与艾滋病风险技术咨询通过12个月的实地考察，结合网络分析、参与者观察、访谈和文件分析，该项目通过在两个互动层面上审查摩洛哥的艾滋病应对措施，借鉴并促进了科学、技术和社会研究：当地非政府组织与更大的艾滋病治理结构之间;以及非政府组织与其客户之间。比较人种学方法将产生丰富的数据，说明不同的非政府组织如何争取受影响者的参与，制定和实施公共卫生干预措施，产生关于健康和疾病的知识，并影响国家艾滋病应对措施。更广泛的影响国际卫生组织认为，如果不加大对中东和北非艾滋病的管理力度，这种疾病将造成严重后果。摩洛哥提供了一个重要的案例研究，因为它正在整个区域推广让非政府组织参与艾滋病治理的战略。该项目的目标是跟踪使公共卫生科学、政策和实践更好地满足受影响人群需求的努力的实际后果。这项研究也将为世界其他地区从事参与式公共卫生项目工作的学者提供重要的比较。
