Sanny Mulubale Sanny Mulubale, PhD is a University of Zambia lecturer and researcher who obtained a doctorate as a Commonwealth scholar from University of East London (UEL) – UK. He is also serving as the MIET Africa Health Coordinator in Zambia, which involves working with schools and health facilities on a SADC programme called FutureLife-Now!. He ran the UEL Global Challenge Research Fund project in Zambia in 2018-2019. He also had two postdoctoral internships to coordinate and work with the UK HIV Psychosocial Network, for which he was nominated for a nOSCAR (the Wellbeing person of the year award from the Naz Project). He was principal consultant for a two years Zambia systematic evidence review project which was aimed at getting to the heart of stigma in health facilities. The project was supported by the International AIDS Society and funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Together with UK based colleagues, he monitored and evaluated a stigma and HIV awareness event titled ‘Laugh Out Loud Stigma’ in London. The programme was organized by KwaAfrica and funded by Public Health England. He has published papers on HIV related stigma and discrimination findings from these projects in peer-reviewed high-ranking international journals. Through his studies on the relationship between health in terms of HIV, development and education, he has contributed to conceptual and empirical research, teaching as well as community service. The nature of this contribution revolves around the lack of scholarly works by African and especially Zambian researchers on resource constraints and resourceful responses from stories of people living with HIV. As a researcher his keen interest is around identity, citizenship, global politics, HIV and the govermentalisation of health. His fascination is with the nexus between theory, empirical evidence and implementation science in both research and policy frameworks.
