BONELA is a non-governmental organisation in Botswana, dedicated to creating an enabling and just environment for people infected and affected by HIV/AIDS through the integration of ethical, legal, and human rights dimensions into the national response to HIV/AIDS. BONELA is involved in research, training, advocacy, legal assistance and public education. HIV/AIDS raises many issues because of its complex, all embracing and multi-dimensional nature. It therefore needs to be understood in relation to numerous scientific, social, legal, political, economic, cultural and other parameters. The Botswana Review of Ethics, Law and HIV/AIDS welcomes contributions on a wide variety of relevant issues from a broad range of disciplinary backgrounds, including but not limited to Ethics, Philosophy, Law, Medicine, Sociology, Psychology, Anthropology, Development Studies, Gender Studies, Pharmacology, Political Science, Economic Policy, Cultural Studies, African Studies, Social Work and Communication. Contributions from practitioners and activists in the field are welcome.
