| dc.description.abstract |
The study covers thirteen countries in the South and Northeast Asia region, and discusses the transborder challenges of HIV/AIDS. Mobility pattern and HIV transmission which are seen to be closely related in disease transmission are specially focused upon. The threat of migrants being carriers of disease has made pre departure and sometimes post arrival medical testing mandatory in several countries. The problems undergone by migrant workers and their vulnerability are also discussed. |
