Introduction

HIV/AIDS continues to be a major global health challenge, with an estimated 38 million people living with HIV worldwide. Despite significant advancements in prevention, treatment, and care, the epidemic persists, particularly among high-risk populations such as men who have sex with men (MSM), transgender individuals, sex workers, and people who inject drugs. Voluntary HIV counseling and testing (VCT) services play a crucial role in the prevention and control of HIV transmission by providing individuals with the information and support they need to make informed decisions about their health. However, uptake of VCT services among high-risk populations remains suboptimal.

This thesis aims to investigate the factors influencing the uptake of voluntary HIV counseling and testing services among high-risk populations. By identifying and understanding these factors, interventions can be developed to improve access and utilization of VCT services among those most at risk for HIV infection.

Thesis Overview

The uptake of voluntary HIV counseling and testing services among high-risk populations is a critical issue in the prevention and control of HIV transmission. Despite the availability of VCT services, many individuals at risk for HIV infection do not access or utilize these services. This thesis aims to investigate the factors influencing the uptake of VCT services among high-risk populations and identify strategies to improve access and utilization.

Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the study, outlining the background, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure, and definition of terms. Chapter 2 presents a comprehensive literature review on HIV/AIDS, VCT services, high-risk populations, stigma and discrimination, access to services, effectiveness of VCT, interventions to improve uptake, cultural considerations, and ethical issues.

Chapter 3 details the research methodology, including the design, study population, data collection methods, analysis, ethical considerations, validity and reliability, sampling techniques, and limitations. Chapter 4 discusses the findings of the study, including demographic characteristics, factors influencing uptake, barriers to access, strategies to improve uptake, comparison with existing literature, and implications for policy and practice.

Chapter 5 concludes the thesis by summarizing key findings, providing recommendations for future research, discussing implications for public health practice, and presenting a conclusion. This thesis aims to contribute to the existing body of knowledge on VCT uptake among high-risk populations and inform the development of interventions to improve access and utilization of these services.
