Researchers at ARCSHS are seeking participants for a new study on current experiences of HIV infection and diagnosis.
Who is eligible?
You can take part if you:
- Have been diagnosed with HIV in the past 12 months
- Are living in Australia (you don’t need to be a permanent resident)
- Are aged 18 years or over
What is involved?
If you take part, we will arrange an in-depth interview at a time that works for you. The interview will take 60–90 minutes and will explore your experience of HIV infection, diagnosis, treatment, care and support, living with HIV, sex and relationships, HIV testing history, community and social networks. Interviews are via phone or web-based video platform (e.g. Zoom), and can be conducted in English, Mandarin, Spanish, Vietnamese and Tagalog. You will be compensated for your time with a $100 gift card.
Why take part?
Your personal story will help us understand the experience of being diagnosed with HIV today, and help influence the design of HIV care and support services.
