Working with the Ministry of Health through the Lusaka Health Office (LPHO) with financial support from PEPFAR and the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Centre for Infectious Disease Research in Zambia (CIDRZ) has supported the establishment and operationalisation of 33 Men’s Clinics across Lusaka Province to help men access health services in their private comfortable vicinity.

CIDRZ Coordinator for Men’s Clinic Initiative Dr James Zulu said the initiative has enabled men to access integrated health services interactively and privately and slowly they have observed that the health-seeking behaviours of men are improving through the provision of safe spaces such as the newly opened Men’s Hub where men can interact with providers and talk about their sexual reproductive health and HIV related matters freely.

The Men’s clinic specialises in helping men access quick health care without wasting time and without feeling ashamed. To make the Men’s Clinics more attractive to men, the newly established Men’s clinic has been set up outside the clinic environment and capacity has been built in the clinical providers by training and mentoring them in Men’s specific problems like erectile dysfunction, beginning prostate enlargement, prostate cancer screening, non-communicable diseases like hypertension, diabetes among others to be used as an entry point to reaching out to men, explained Dr Zulu.
