An Advanced Course
Hanoi, August 30 – September 3, 2010
In the wake of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, questions of sexual health have received increasing attention in research, policy and programming. Research on human sexuality is, however, a challenging endeavor, especially so since problems related to sexuality can be personally sensitive and politically fraught. This short course invites experienced Vietnamese researchers to reflect on sexuality as an object of knowledge: How can we approach and conceptualize matters related to intimate human experiences and practices? The course will adopt an interdisciplinary approach, combining anthropology and public health.
Aim and contents
Researching Sexual Health and Rightsaims to strengthen the capacities of Vietnamese researchers to conduct critical research on problems related to human sexuality in general and sexual health and rights in particular. The course offers an overview of different research approaches to sexuality; discusses the linkages between sexual health and sexual rights; and addresses the particular ethical and methodological challenges that research on sexuality entails. Throughout the course, particular attention will be paid to sexual health as a public health issue and to questions of risk, vulnerability and inequality.
The short course is organized by the ENRECA project ‘REACH’ (Strengthening Population and Reproductive Health Research in Vietnam), as a collaboration between the Department of Anthropology, University of Copenhagen and Centre for Population Information and Documentation (CPID), General Office for Population and Family Planning (GOPFP). The course will be held in Hanoi and taught by Associate Professor Tine M. Gammeltoft, Department of Anthropology, University of Copenhagen.
