Project Description
This study will adapt, and pilot test the Kupambana intervention to address intersectional HIV and poverty stigmas and their impact on mental health, progression across the HIV continuum of care, and mechanisms of change, such as stigma, among young people with HIV in Zambia. The pilot test of Kupambana will evaluate its feasibility, acceptability, implementation costs, and preliminary effects. If findings show promise, this research will form the basis of a subsequent type 1 hybrid effectiveness-implementation investigation of Kupambana.
