<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The last decade has transformed the practices of HIV prevention. Sustained HIV treatment ('treatment as prevention') and taking antiretroviral drugs prophylactically ('pre-exposure prophylaxis') have both
been shown to be highly effective in preventing HIV transmission, and are endorsed internationally and increasingly promoted in many countries. Biomedical prevention disrupts the ways in which people conceptualise risk and practise safe sex, gives rise to
new identities and practices, and affect the ways in which communities respond effectively to HIV. We are seeking students who will examine these issues in depth, using qualitative methods (such as interviewing, participant observation or media analysis).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Australian governments have devoted substantial resources to the problem of 'Closing the Gap' between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, particularly in relation to health outcomes, over the past decade.
We seek proposals from students interested in critically examining health policies linked to 'Closing the Gap', and documenting accounts of Indigenous self-determination, health and wellbeing which provide alternatives to a deficit model of policy 'failure'.
Taking a national perspective, the doctoral candidate will be expected to reflect critically on the diverse contributions and perspectives of Indigenous leaders, community organisations, service providers and service users on enacting effective policy change
in this area.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The engagement of target communities in policy processes ensures representation by the affected community in the policy area. In some health/social policy areas, communities lack power to represent themselves,
and mechanisms need to be developed to ensure effective and fair access. This is most potent when considering illicit drugs policy - people who use drugs are most directly affected by the policies but are least likely to be engaged in policy processes. This
PhD will analyse past mechanisms of engagement (e.g. drug summits) and trial three new participatory processes, leading to internationally relevant innovations in participatory democracy for affected communities.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
