The aim and objective of this scientific research article is to explore the literature with intent to raise attention to the perfidiousness of the experiences of men as palliative caregivers of people living with HIV/AIDS and other terminal illnesses.
The article has utilized eclectic data sources in Botswana and elsewhere.
THE FINDINGS INDICATE THAT CARE GIVING POSITION OF MEN HAS BEEN FOUND BESET BY: retrogressive gender unfriendly cultures; patriarchy; weaker gender empowerment campaigns; and inadequate male involvement in care.
THE ARTICLE RECOMMENDS: (1) a paradigm shift of structural gender dynamics; (2) making AIDS care programmes both gender sensitive and gender neutral; (3) Strengthening gender mainstreaming; (4) diluting cultures and patriarchy; (5) and signing and domesticating SADC gender protocol and other gender friendly international agreements by Botswana government.
这篇科研文章的目的是探究文献,以引起人们对男性作为艾滋病毒/艾滋病及其他绝症患者姑息护理者所经历的阴险状况的关注。
本文利用了博茨瓦纳及其他地方的多种数据来源。
研究结果表明,男性的护理角色面临以下问题:落后的性别不友好文化;父权制;较弱的性别赋权运动;以及男性参与护理不足。
本文建议:(1)结构性性别动态的范式转变;(2)使艾滋病护理项目兼具性别敏感性和性别中立性;(3)加强性别主流化;(4)淡化文化和父权制;(5)博茨瓦纳政府签署并实施南共体性别议定书及其他性别友好型国际协议。
