Indigenous Approaches to the HIV/AIDS Scourge in Uganda

“The management of HIV/AIDS-related illnesses using existing drugs is very
costly especially for poor households. This study has focused on the role of traditional herbalists in the management and prevention of HIV/AIDS-related illnesses in Uganda. It has also examined the existing linkages between traditional herbalists, the government and other agencies working on HIV/AIDS and how these linkages can be enhanced, and the community’s perception about traditional Herbalists in the management and prevention of HIV/AIDS-related
illnesses.”
