OHTN’s Online Talk Show: What’s hot with PRAs in Canada part 7

Wednesday, July 8th at 2:00 PM ESTOHTN

“What’s hot with Peer Research Associates (PRAs) in Canada” is an online talk show about community based research that has people living with HIV as main protagonists.

Edition 7 : “Climbing the PRA ladder: how to begin, survive and advance”

The-Learning-PlaceWhat does it take to get a job and thrive in it? Varying degrees of personal and economic empowerment are associated with PRA work making it is a sought-after position. But can it lead to a sustainable career?  Are PRA skills transferable to other sectors? Does the episodic nature of research work with or against the episodic nature of HIV? One person’s idea of career success could mean undue stress and health concerns for another, so is a common PRA career path possible or is it unique to the individual?

To help us discuss these issues and identify some solutions we are bringing together some exciting guests from across the country who will offer their unique perspectives into the PRA role. Is it a job, a career, or a stepping stone?
