Makhosazana Dlamini is a public health researcher focused on HIV service delivery, linkage to care, and treatment retention in Eswatini. Her work is closely aligned with national and regional HIV response strategies, contributing operational and implementation research that informs community-based models of testing, peer-delivered linkage case management, and differentiated care approaches.
Her publications emphasize the design, evaluation, and costing of community-centered HIV interventions, including the CommLink program, index-client testing expansion, same-day ART initiation, and automated medication dispensing systems. This body of work highlights expertise in health systems strengthening, economic evaluation, and strategies to overcome structural and behavioral barriers to HIV care.
Dlamini’s contributions demonstrate strong capacity in translating implementation data into policy-relevant insights, particularly around improving early ART initiation, retention, and client-centered service delivery. Additional work on HIV self-testing distribution and nursing education reflects a broad commitment to workforce development and innovative, scalable solutions to enhance HIV outcomes in high-burden settings.
