As part of the PEPFAR prevention portfolio review, it was noted that a number of the sexual prevention

implementing partners, were not basing their programming on evidence. In order to generate strategic

information that will enhance our prevention programming, there is need to undertake operation research.

Possible areas for research will focus on Male Medical Circumcision, for example examining the potential

for and impact of task-shifting including an evaluation of the ability of nurses or other non-physician

clinicians to perform the procedure; sero discordant couples, understanding their social and behavioral

dynamics including how to program for them.

The detailed research agenda will be developed further in conjunction with the SI team and implementing

partners. The research results will be used to influence Sexual prevention related policies and program

implementation.
