7. Study location: Phayao, Thailand
where reported HIV/AIDS cases were among the highest in Thailand in 1998
multi-sectoral assistance to people and communities affected by AIDS.
8. Study Communities
Two districts in Phayao:
“Mueng” and “Pong” were
chosen as the study location.
Mueng district represented a
community where there was
an active response to
HIV/AIDS (active villages),
and Pong district as a
community with a less
active response to
HIV/AIDS (less active
villages)
9. Community mapping to identify
case and control household
April-June 1999, 7000 households were contacted and asked about their
member’s health status, member’s illness, willing to be interviewed or not.
(Physical landscape, household location :ID)

Structure and composition; Children ; Elderly
social scientists, epidemiologists, nutritionists and agricultural economists, etc.
12. Conceptualising household coping
(1999-2000): Short term
Household coping mechanisms include :
• Adjustment of Household available resources, Borrowing, Transfer in/out,
Increase market activities
Community and relatives for household coping include :
• Community donate or lend food, material, money; e.g. District AIDS Fund,
Established community and home based care, Provision of child care,
Provision of labour, Community participation and perceived changes,
Transfer money in/out
Support from GO/NGO for household coping include :
• Child and elderly care, Counselling, Health services utilisation, Schooling
and nutrition program, Training to care providers, Job training, Group
therapy, meditation practice, Support group of PLHA, Self help group of
PLHA, Information support basic care for PLHA

17. Household coping: Follow up studies
• Action taken to minimise distress, provide follow up support
• Follow up studies: approved by renewal IRB (Mahidol
University): willing to participate in the studies
– 1999-2000: 600 households
324 cases from 300 case households (and 300 control households
enrolled- neighbourhood control non AIDS families )
– 2004: 501 households - linked with HH-ID
319 cases from 266 case households + 56 previous control
households (and 235 control households enrolled)
– 2006: 312 households - linked with HH-ID
285 cases from 121 case households + 81 previous control
households (and 191 control households enrolled)
– 2008: 278 households (303 cases) - people are moving out,
mobilisation or urban migration, etc.
18. Household impact and
coping mechanism (2004, 2006)
• Household and community level (treatment dynamics and
access to support + Universal access to ARTs in 2003,
both first and second line):
– social and economic impacts - disability grant, support group
– socioeconomic status/poverty impact of HIV/AIDS
– HIV/AIDS Orphans - missing generation
– nutrition status - food security, food production, food
supplements
– livelihoods - maintain household income/expenditure patterns,
alleviating labour shortage
– behaviour - effect of ARV
• Married persons significantly more likely to have commenced
treatment (p<0.001)
• More productivity, could earn more money
19. Scope of Accessibility (2004-2008)
• Medical services:
– VCT & Screening
– OI prophylaxis and treatment
– ARV therapy for appropriate patients
– Specific laboratory access (CD4,VL)
(Thira Woratanarat and Anupong Chitwarakorn, 2005)
• Psychological support: counseling networks and
psychotherapy services for infected people and
affected family/household
• Socio-economic services: co-operate among various
ministries, multisectoral collaboration for support
(those who need support)

• The age and sex distribution among PLWHA differs significantly from the general population in
the study location.
• The proportion of PLWHA aged 40 and above is 9.7 % among 324 PLWHA, compared to 20.8 %
in the general population. The respective proportions for male sex are 46.3% and 57.6%. The
percentage of PLWHA with no formal education is 3.7%, compared to 8.9% in the general
population. Including primary education, the respective proportions are 42.9% and 71%
respectively. Unemployment is higher among PLWHA (3.2 % vs. 1.6%).
• Among those who are employed, the proportion of farmers and labourers is slightly lower than in
the general population (64.6% vs. 71.4%) but this is not statistically significant. Significance levels
for the statistical tests and results are shown in Table 1.

• Average household incomes (THB 85,740 vs. THB 82,278) and per capita incomes
(THB 23,889 vs. THB 20,052) are significantly higher among PLWHA than in the
general population in Phayao.
• A small but significant difference exists for the average number of household
members (3.8 vs. 4.1).
• The proportion of persons with household per capita incomes below the poverty line
is significantly higher in the patient group (23.4% vs. 17.5%).
•Significance levels for the statistical tests and results are shown in above table

• Household assets are presented at similar proportions in households of PLWHA and
the general population.
• This observation is made for both "luxury" (e.g., car, television) and "regular"
household assets (e.g., rice cooker, stove).
• All items (motorcycle, refrigerator) were found slightly more frequently in PLWHAs'
households than in the general population

To assess whether the high prevalence of poverty among PLHA (age>40) is different from that observed in
the general population, we analysed the age distribution of PLHA with incomes below the poverty line. Fifty
five percent of all poor PLHA are 40 years or older in the crude data set. This proportion decreases
substantially to 22.8% if the data are age- and sex adjusted. In the general population, 25.1% of all poverty
occurs among people older than forty, indicating that the prevalence of poverty in this age group is similar in
both PLHA group and general population.
Incomes and expenditures, educational achievements, as well as the prevalence of poverty among PLHA
are dependent on age and sex. The lowest levels of education, lowest income, and highest prevalence of
poverty occurs in PLHA of age 40 or older (30.3% for male, 42.8% for female). Except for the age group
20-30, poverty occurs more frequently among male than female.
25. • Age- and sex standardisation of patient data results in a decrease of the average poverty level
from 23.4% to 17.9% (vs. 17.5% in the general population). Standardised data also show
slightly higher per capita expenditures in the PLWHA (THB 16,098 p.a. vs. THB 15,215 p.a.),
while the relation is the reverse for unadjusted data (Table 3). Standardisation substantially
decreases the proportion of PLWHA with no or primary education (from 42.9% to 73.7%, vs.
75.9% in the general population).
• From our study, we are unable to determine whether our finding is based on more recent
developments or represents a chronic disease distribution within the Thai population. The age-
group 20-39 years, which is strongly affected by the HIV epidemic in study population, is also
the age group that has the highest average income among PLWHA households (Table 2). This
observation may indicate a spread to more specific groups under the impact of the HIV
epidemic.
• While the prevalence of poverty in PLWHA (age>40) is very high, this finding is again a
reflection of the situation in the general population of the study location (Table 5). We can
therefore not identify poverty as a risk factor to explain the higher incidence HIV/AIDS among
this group in our sample.
• It should be noted that our results could not be interpreted as a refutation of claims about the
importance of socio-economic factors for susceptibility to HIV/AIDS. It is possible that most of
or all of the unreported cases have low incomes that higher deter them from attending
government services. In addition, treatment services in Thailand are still centralised at district
hospitals, so that travel expenses are required for many PLWHA to visit these hospitals.
Although these expenses are considered to be "minimal", people with incomes below poverty
line may nevertheless be unaffordable for most cases whose expenditure is most likely to be
stressed directly on their basic necessities like food consumption (Table 3).
26. Household impact and
coping mechanism (2006, 2008)
• Impact Mitigation: Community strengthening to support
long term and continuous care
– environmental and institutional factors: Physical/geographical
– increase investment from local authority in impact
mitigation
– community coping responses: traditional grassroots or indigenous
organisations, formal community-based organisations (external
support from NGOs or other agencies)
– migration and complex emergencies - drug resistance
– health services and policy (including access to health care, quality
of care, and health sector reform)
– development policy- Healthy Public Policies, Social Safety Net

28. Mainstream HIV/AIDS to
Impact Mitigation
Policy Nexus: What evidence is needed to help policy-makers
make informed decisions? What challenges do policy-makers
face in using research on economic impacts of HIV/AIDS to
inform their policymaking process? What policies is this
impact mitigation
best able to inform?
29. Initiative mainstream HIV/AIDS to
impact mitigation
• nourishing families
• incentives for the vulnerable to re-invest in productive
farming
• food security, nutrition, gender, methods, targeting, M&E
and impact assessments
• nutritive value - genetic/ post-harvest fortification, for
example, aflatoxin reduction
• scaling out improved varieties with market traits, and
• strengthen partnerships.
30. Potential focus areas for strategic mainstreaming
at the household level in impact mitigation
• Strengthen partnerships: partnership between the
communities, governments, donor agencies, international
NGOs, local NGOs, private sector and others in mitigating
the impacts of HIV/AIDS.
• The relationship between households and social networks:
including both how these networks affects the impact of
and responses to the epidemic and how they, in turn, are
affected.
• Greater focus on the informal economy and possible
support mechanisms: looking at the links between
HIV/AIDS and households' ability to generate income, etc.

34. Possible key questions are:
• How do the social networks that exist affect vulnerability to
HIV/AIDS (specific emphasis on economic vulnerability/ poverty)?
• How do social networks mitigate impact and affect responses to the
pandemic?
• How does HIV/AIDS at an individual/household level impact on social
networks (e.g. issues of extended family support; foster parents; social
support mechanisms, effects on types of income sources and
migration)?
• On the basis of a greater understanding of social networks, how can
one (re)define an 'affected household' to try to achieve a more accurate
assessment of impact?
35. Overarching issues
• Quality and representativeness of data
• Produce information appropriate for policy
development (not “policy evidence base”)
• Extend focus beyond the rural economy
• Interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary approach
• Methodological innovation (nature of attrition bias,
statistical power, econometrics: two-step model,
results may be specific to context/setting)
• Be prepared for the unexpected
• Better dissemination of information
37. Vision and Goals
