Health Promotion - Population Groups and Issue Areas
During the consultation process, a population health approach was included
to begin to identify the unique needs of certain populations and the ways
that their particular needs intersect with considerations concerning natural
health products (NHPs) research. Developing
a Research Agenda in Natural Health Products and Complementary and Alternative
Health Care in HIV/AIDS: A Discussion Paper, summarizes key
issues concerning the use of NHPs and complementary and alternative health
care and the development of research with regard to individuals with HIV/AIDS.
A further examination is provided in The
Role of Natural Health Products and Complementary and Alternative Health
Care in HIV/AIDS - Developing a Research Agenda: An Invitational Roundtable.
A consideration of NHP research relative to children and youth is presented
in Natural Health
Products Research in Children and Youth: A Priority-Setting Conference.
Developing a Research Agenda in Natural Health Products, Complementary
and Alternative Health Care and HIV/AIDS: A Discussion Paper
Report prepared by Theodore de Bruyn
This report provides an overview of issues concerning the development
of a research agenda in the area of natural health products (NHPs), complementary
and alternative health care (CAHC) and HIV/AIDS. It summarizes key aspects
of the use of CAHC/NHPs by people with HIV/AIDS, reviews research priorities
and outlines a process for considering next steps for building research
capacity and advancing research priorities in this area. The report was
prepared as background information for the Invitational Roundtable on
the Role of Natural Health Products and Complementary and Alternative
Health Care - Developing a Research Agenda, convened in March 2002 by
the Natural Health Products Directorate in collaboration with the Health
Human Resources Strategy Division and the HIV/AIDS Policy, Coordination
