Ethical challenges and opportunities for nurses in HIV and AIDS community-based participatory research in Jamaica

August 14, 2015

This paper outlines some ethical challenges and opportunities experienced during a CBPR project in Jamaica that aimed to strengthen nurses’ engagement in HIV and AIDS policy. The project involved diverse HIV and AIDS stakeholder groups: frontline nurses, nurse managers, researchers, health care decision makers, and other community members, including people living with HIV or AIDS. The ethical challenges and opportunities faced by this diverse partnership are outlined using a relational public health ethics framework.
