摘要

艾滋病毒和艾滋病继续对全球健康和发展构成挑战,特别是在撒哈拉以南非洲地区。南非是世界上艾滋病毒感染者人数最多的国家之一。尽管加快了防治艾滋病毒和艾滋病的努力,但仍然存在一个有增无减的挑战,即继续出现新的感染,特别是在非洲青年中。研究表明,危险的性行为,包括多个性伙伴关系,是艾滋病毒传播的原因。在其他目标中,这项研究试图确定在被称为“ukujola”的随意性伙伴关系的背景下,助长多重性关系的潜在社会经济因素。采用了一般定性研究方法,对来自夸祖鲁-纳塔尔省的IsiZulu-speaking参与者(21-34岁)进行了深度访谈(n = 20)、焦点小组访谈(n = 4)和关键信息提供者访谈(n = 8)。研究发现,各种社会经济因素,包括贫困和高失业率、性欲和对社会认可的需求,都促进了多重性关系。为了遏制艾滋病毒和艾滋病的进一步传播,预防工作必须以减少伴侣并发性行为为目标。

Understanding the Role of Socio-Economic Factors in Fuelling Multiple Sexual Partnerships Among the Zulus in Contemporary South Africa
ABSTRACT HIV and AIDS continue to pose a global health and development challenge, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. South Africa has one of the largest numbers of people living with HIV in the world. Despite accelerated efforts to combat the HIV and AIDS epidemic there remains an unabated challenge, i.e. continuing new infections, particularly among young African adults. Studies suggest that risky sexual behaviours, including multiple sexual partnerships, are responsible for the spread of HIV. This study sought, among other objectives, to identify underlying socio-economic factors fuelling multiple sexual relationships occurring in the context of casual sexual partnerships known as “ukujola”. A generic qualitative study approach was used, drawing on in-depth interviews (n = 20), focus groups (n = 4) and key-informant interviews (n = 8) conducted with IsiZulu-speaking participants (aged 21–34) from KwaZulu-Natal. The study found that there are various socio-economic factors, including poverty and high levels of unemployment, sexual desire and the need for social approval, which promote multiple sexual relationships. In order to curb the further spread of HIV and AIDS, prevention efforts must target the reduction of partner concurrency.
