From theory to practice of designing for diversity: Applying intersectionality to improve HIV testing uptake
This study provides a practical framework for health planners and researchers seeking to reduce inequalities by presenting how intersectionality can influence the design of a health intervention. Accordingly, it is necessary to revisit the social relationships and power structures, determine the intervention components based on evidence tailored to the target group's needs, and apply changes at different levels.
