                                                              Welcome to the Manicaland HIV/STD Prevention Project

                                                              The Manicaland HIV/STD Prevention Project is a major collaborative scientific research initiative that has been underway in rural areas of eastern Zimbabwe since the early 1990s. The principal collaborating institutions in the project are the Biomedical Research and Training Institute in Harare and Imperial College London. We also have joint research projects with people from the London School of Economics and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.

                                                              The Manicaland Project has one of the largest prospective population-based surveys in Africa. This has allowed us to uniquely track trends in the spread, impact and control of the epidemic in Zimbabwe. Using quantitative, qualitative and mathematical modelling methods to describe and interpret trends in the HIV epidemic in eastern Zimbabwe, the Project has contributed significantly to our understanding of the HIV epidemic in Africa.
