  • African Australian Communities and Hiv
    AFRICAN AUSTRALIAN COMMUNITIES Mapping HIV health AND HIV: promotion programs and resources INTRODUCTION HIV is an emerging issue for African communities in Australia. As with other migrants from regions with a high prevalence of HIV, African Australian communities can experience higher rates of HIV than the Australian population as a whole. While the actual number of African-born people in Australia who have been diagnosed with HIV is low, they may face a number of challenges that affect their quality of life, such as late and unexpected diagnosis; immigration issues; and difficulty accessing treatment while on temporary visas. African Australian communities are also adversely affected by the stigmatisation of HIV and the racist association of HIV with their communities. People in African communities may be more vulnerable to HIV due to myths and misconceptions around HIV transmission and illness, gender inequity, cultural sensitivities around talking about sex, and issues related to settlement in a culture very different to those of their countries of origin. WHY THE MAPPING? A range of programs and resources have been developed by NGOs and government agencies to address these issues - both for African communities and for other culturally and linguistically diverse CALD communities facing similar challenges. However because most of this work has been done at state/territory level, many service providers and health promotion agencies are not aware of valuable programs that have been implemented in jurisdictions other than their own.
