Training in HIV Implementation Science and Dissemination in Kenya
NICHD - Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development
About This Grant
Project Summary/Abstract There is a vital need to expand implementation science research to identify the most effective intervention strategies to improve HIV prevention, care and treatment outcomes in the U.S. and globally. Kenya provides a unique setting for this work given the high HIV burden, the large burden of co-infections such as TB and greater access to populations including women and children with HIV. Studying interventions in high-burden settings allows for more rapid evaluation and refinement of strategies that are directly applicable to improving HIV outcomes in the United States (US). This program represents a strategic opportunity to train researchers to develop and clinically test relevant interventions that can be adapted for similar settings in the US. Moi University College of Health Sciences (Moi University School of Public Health [MUSPH] and School of Medicine [MUSM]) in Kenya and Indiana University in the U.S. have a 36 year history of collaboration that has produced over 1000 publications and demonstrated the value of this partnership to US public health. Lessons learned during this long collaboration contributed to the successful response to the HIV outbreak in Scott County in 2015, greatly benefiting the citizens of Indiana. This long-standing partnership provides a strong foundation to expand and strengthen the HIV implementation science research workforce and will support the newly developed Kenya-U.S. Health Cooperation Framework. This program will enable the testing of novel intervention strategies to improve HIV prevention and management and continue to apply lessons learned from our work in Kenya to improve HIV outcomes in the U.S. through a bidirectional and iterative exchange of knowledge and solutions to address shared health challenges. Under the leadership of Indiana University and Moi University the over-arching goal of this proposal is to create sustainable and collaborative capacity for HIV Implementation Science and Dissemination (HIV-ID) both within academia and at the county-level (equivalent to U.S. states) through 1) educational infrastructure to support training in HIV-ID in western Kenya; 2) expanding human resource capacity in HIV-ID that promotes collaboration between academia and county health teams; and 3) to support continuation of trainees in HIV-ID. We will engage county health teams and county governments in the HIV-ID Program to address the vital need for their collaboration with academics in order to tackle challenges within the HIV prevention and care cascades. We will promote reciprocal innovation (shared learning), defined as the bidirectional, co-constituted, and iterative exchange of ideas, resources, and innovations to address health challenges shared with the U.S. and other countries. Ultimately, strengthening research capacity in Kenya will not only improve the prevention and management outcomes but will also establish an effective sustainable training infrastructure for management of current and future emerging infectious diseases.
