Washington D.C., USA, July 2012www.aids2012.org SMC helps reduce the chances of HIV infection (All FGD’s)  * It reduces infection rate but doesn’t mean that you won’t get infected with the virus. (Gaborone females) SMC promotes hygiene (All FGD’s)  I take it that circumcision helps one be clean; foreskin accumulates dirt and other diseases (Kweneng females)

Washington D.C., USA, July 2012www.aids2012.org Excessive bleeding – * I take it that if you cut someone’s foreskin what comes to mind would be ‘what if I lose a lot of blood and die?’ and the pain, so these things discourages them to go and circumcise. (Females FGD)

Washington D.C., USA, July 2012www.aids2012.org Recommendations Strive to achieve high levels of correct knowledge. Develop targeted messaging for identified gaps; ie for concerns on “pain/complications” and “believes” Use circumcised men to respond to perceptions on pain. Educate communities on use of local anesthesia to address pain. Explore use of non-surgical devices; ie PrePex. Increase use of interpersonal communications. Promote other SMC benefits such as cleanliness. Develop/customize messages to local context. Strategically assign mobilizers to communities. Empower leaders on SMC facts ( buy-in and cultural concerns ). Pilot materials extensively before roll out.

Washington D.C., USA, July 2012www.aids2012.org Conclusions Cont. Generally the higher the knowledge levels the better the results;, regardless of whether the knowledge is on a negative factor or not; ie NO KNOWLEDGE of HCT as a requirement for SMC did not have negative impact on SMC uptake. –It is important to increase knowledge across all SMC facts. –Hence strive to achieve high levels of correct knowledge (deemed positive or negative knowledge), to take advantage of positive outcomes brought about by higher knowledge. Fear for pain/complications/death is a key challenge that needs to be addressed. Interpersonal communications are important vehicles for SMC message delivery and motivators to SMC. –However radio provides the best coverage. Community leaders are willing to mobilize for the program but are not empowered.
