OverviewAI-generated summary
Gamji Rabiu Abu-Ba’are's research focuses on understanding and mitigating the impact of intersectional stigma on HIV prevention and care, particularly among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Ghana. His work has investigated the multi-level manifestations of sexual stigma and its influence on HIV testing decisions and linkage to care. Abu-Ba’are has developed and adapted peer support interventions, such as the HIVE3 program, designed to reduce stigma as a barrier to HIV testing and care among this population. His research employs mixed-methods approaches and includes protocols for cluster randomized controlled trials to evaluate the effectiveness of these interventions.
His publications address community-based strategies for increasing HIV self-testing and linkage to care, the role of place and stigma in HIV testing decisions, and the intersectional stigma faced by sexual and gender minorities in sub-Saharan Africa. Abu-Ba’are has also contributed to scoping reviews examining HIV-related intersectional stigma in the region. He has an h-index of 15 with 763 total citations across 78 publications. He collaborates with Henry Delali Dakpui on shared research.
