DESCRIPTION:Professor Tsutomu Kitajima\, from Kyorin University\, will pres
 ent "Toward improving access to HIV testing and treatment among non-Japane
 se residents in Japan."\n\nThis talk is based on a study conducted as a pa
 rt of the research project titled "Improving access to HIV testing and tre
 atment among non-Japanese\," which was funded by the Ministry of Health. T
 his research addressed the concern of non-Japanese residents’ access to 
 HIV tests and treatment. The survey informed us that there were unmet need
 s for accessing HIV testing among international students in Japan. We nego
 tiated with a public health center and HIV testing center in Tokyo to make
  the service more accessible to non-Japanese\, especially for those who ha
 ve low proficiency in Japanese and English. For this purpose\, we organize
 d a training program for medical interpreters about HIV and TB during the 
 last two years. We then assessed the effectiveness of the training program
 .   \n\nThis is one of several events during Professor Tsutomu Kitajima’
 s two-day visit. Professor Kitajima from Kyorin University is visiting Ore
 gon State on November 15 and 16. During his visit\, he will present his re
 search and hold two open forums. Kyorin University has been a partner of t
 he CPHHS Center for Global Health since 2014.
