REPORT - H.I.V. FROM BLOOD EXPOSURE IN INDIA
The biomedical facts are that the HIV virus transmits many hundreds times faster through blood than through semen, and yet the sexual route totally dominates our work with the blood route mostly neglected and this, in a country where unsterile health care is so common. If we are wrong, and not addressing how HIV is spreading, that would be disastrous. This report is the result of the research to find the facts! download

AN INTRODUCTION TO A SOCIAL EQUITY AUDIT
This book is about social equity - the quality of being fair, just and inclusive. The only difficulty is that this is easier said than done, especially in a world where exclusion is the norm. We take on the role of perpetrators or victims as the situation commands. Exclusions are so omnipresent that we have internalised most of them and fail to recognise them in our personal or professional lives. This is an attempt to identify and understand exclusions in our professional work.
