Research

I am currently working on a comparative policy analysis examining the relationship between evidence, policy and practice surrouding cotrimoxazole (CTX) prophylaxis for people living with HIV/AIDS in resource poor settings. The study analyses the process and context affecting the adoption of CTX prophylaxis in national health politices as well as the implementation of these policies in Zambia, Malawi and Uganda.

My PhD research investigated the differences and interactions between family and programme based support for orphaned children living in Lilongwe, Malawi.
