To expand and further the work of the HIV/AIDS in Humanitarian Crises program, CIRA established the HIV, Mobility, and Displacement initiatives in 2023 to stimulate and support research and collaborations that promote status neutral HIV-related prevention and care among populations experiencing mobility and displacement.
This program is part of CIRA’s Clinical and Health Services Research Core and co-led by Kaveh Khoshnood, PhD, MPH and E. Jennifer Edelman, MD, MHS and coordinated by Dini Harsono, MSc.
Activities
