17 Studies for Transgender Women  NIH Funded Studies  Feasibility study of an anti-stigma intervention among health care providers in Mumbai, India to improve access to HIV services for hijra  Feasibility study of a telemedicine approach to improving engagement in care among TGW of color in Washington, DC  RCT of the LifeSkills program (a six session, peer-led, group intervention for sexually active TGW ages 16-24 years) in Boston and Chicago.  RCT of T-Talk, a peer-led harm reduction and social support intervention for TGW in New York City  Pilot RCT of Sheroes, a 5-session group intervention based on gender affirmation in the USA.

18 Community Level Determinants  Reinforce stigma and discrimination  Stigmas Sexual stigma, transphobia, HIV-related stigma Intersecting/layered stigmas  Pejorative public discourse limits the effectiveness of health communication programs for these populations  Promote health and well-being  Social Capital Inclusion, Participation, and Cohesion

19 Objective  Synthesize the evidence characterizing the community-level determinants that potentiate or mitigate HIV-related outcomes for key populations

20 Search protocol  Search Strategy  Medical subject headings (MeSH)/key terms HIV Sex workers, gay men/MSM, transgender women, and people who inject drugs Community- or social-level determinants  Inclusion Criteria  Peer-reviewed literature review from 2000 to 2014  Low and middle income countries (LMIC)  Contained community- or social-level associations with HIV and HIV related risk (ie sexual behaviours)

21 Search Results  1191 unique articles were obtained from the search  132 articles were included in the full text review 22 articles contained community- or social-level associations with HIV or HIV-related outcomes

22 Map of low-income and middle-income countries reporting community level measurements for HIV risk among key populations, 2000-2014

23 Results Men who have Sex with Men  Mitigating HIV Risks  Participating in HIV Prevention Programs in Beijing OR 2.3 (95% CI 1.3-4.0) knowing 10 or more MSM  Potentiating HIV Risks  Prevalent HIV infections in Kampala, Uganda OR 4.3 (95% CI 1.3-14.0) exposure to homophobic abuse Sources: Ma W, Raymond HF, Wilson EC, et al. Participation of HIV prevention programs among men who have sex with men in two cities of China—a mixed method study. BMC Public Health. 2012; Hladik W, Barker J, Ssenkusu JM, et al. HIV infection among men who have sex with men in Kampala, Uganda—a respondent driven sampling survey. PLoS One. 2012.

24 Results Female sex workers  Studies regularly focused on measuring social participation and cohesion among FSW  Consistent condom use with all partners  Swaziland OR 2.3 (95% CI 1.3-3.9) social cohesion  China OR 1.2 (p<.01) peer support for condom use Sources: Fonner VA, Kerrigan D, Mnisi Z, et al. Social cohesion, social participation, and HIV related risk among female sex workers in Swaziland. PloS One. 2014; Correlates of consistent condom use among female entertainment workers in Shanghai, China: a repeated measures analysis. Int J STD AIDS. 2013.

25 Results Transgender people  Limited studies in LMIC focused on this population  Consistent condom use with a paying partner in India OR 1.9 (95% CI 1.5-2.3) collective efficacy among high-risk MSM and transgender women Source: Saggurti N, Mishra RM, Proddutoor L, et al. Community collectivization and its association with consistent condom use and STI treatment seeking behaviors among female sex workers and high-risk men who have sex with men/transgenders in Andhra Pradesh, India. Aids Care. 2013.

26 Results People who inject drugs  Limited data measuring community- and social-level determinants among PWID  Highly criminalized population  Avoiding HIV testing in Bangkok, Thailand OR 6.7 (95% CI 3.1-14.7) ever been refused health care services Source: Ti L, Hayashi K, Kaplan K, et al. HIV test avoidance among people who inject drugs in Thailand. AIDS Behavior. 2013.

27 Conclusions  Predominant majority of epidemiologic and surveillance studies have focused on individual-level determinants of HIV risk among key populations  Community determinants  Contextualize HIV-related risk behaviors among key populations  Affect the coverage of HIV prevention, treatment, and care services by mitigating both the provision and uptake of services

28 Ways Forward  Epidemiology and Prevention Programs  Increased measurement and characterizations of community-level determinants of HIV risk is needed to Characterize barriers to service provision and uptake for key populations Translate efficacious HIV prevention interventions to effective and scalable HIV prevention, treatment, and care programs  Policy  Failure to address each level of HIV risk will cost lives, harm communities, and undermine the gains of the HIV response
