This book, written decades into the HIV epidemic, reflects
critically on the idea that the socially excluded populations often
focused on in HIV research are in fact difficult to access and
reach. The author broadly applies the concept 'hard to reach' to
characterize populations that researchers find difficult to engage
with. Social factors that produce marginalization and ultimately
result in people choosing not to engage in research are not
captured by the concept of 'hard to reach'. Limited attention has
focused on how researchers can address the social factors that
result in decisions to not engage in research. Disrupting the ways
in which people are conceptualized as 'hard to reach' so as to
refocus on transforming social systems and personal values, beliefs
and approaches is understudied. This book uses case examples based
on HIV research with Indigenous youth, internally displaced women,
LGBTQ communities in the Global North and Global South, and persons
at the intersection of these identities, to identify successful
approaches to working with marginalized and often vulnerable
communities and groups. The chapters signal the need for attention
to five key social factors when developing successful approaches:
context and storytelling; cultural humility; critical hope;
imagination and possibility; and love, intimate inquiry, and the
beloved community, if nations, individuals and communities are to
address the epidemic in a sustainable and impactful way.
