Bibliography on HIV/AIDS in Ethiopia and Ethiopians in the Diaspora: 2003 Update

Abstract

This listing is a continuation of the first bibliography in this series (1), which covered the literature through 2002. The present listing covers the 2003 literature (127 references) and papers from 2002 which could not be included in the earlier edition (19 references). Efforts were again made to cover all published and unpublished materials using online databases and obtaining materials from various organizations and individuals in Ethiopia. This bibliographic update, when compared with the first edition, demonstrates the accelerated increase in research output overall since 2000 and especially during 2003, a shift towards epidemiological/KAP and intervention studies and programs and relative neglect of some other areas. A total of 1,088 references listed in both bibliographies cover the period from 1972 to 2003. Nearly all studies date to the 20 year period starting in 1984 (when HIV infections were first reported from Ethiopia).
