AIDS-affected young people's access to livelihood assets: Exploring 'new variant famine' in rural southern Africa (2016)
Journal Article
Ansell, N., Hajdu, F., van Blerk, L., & Robson, E. (2016). AIDS-affected young people's access to livelihood assets: Exploring 'new variant famine' in rural southern Africa. Journal of rural studies, 46, 23-34. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jrurstud.2016.05.008

Southern Africa’s exceptionally high HIV prevalence and recurrent food crises prompted De Waal and Whiteside (2003) to hypothesise a 'new variant famine' (NVF) in which inability to access food is driven by the effects of AIDS. Among the tentative ex... Read More about AIDS-affected young people's access to livelihood assets: Exploring 'new variant famine' in rural southern Africa.

Africa’s recent communications ‘revolution’ has generated optimism that using mobile phones for health (mhealth) can help bridge healthcare gaps, particularly for rural, hard-to-reach populations. However, while scale-up of mhealth pilots remains lim... Read More about Who bears the cost of ‘informal mhealth’?
