Abstract:Background
In Nigeria, similar to most of sub-Saharan Africa, the fight against HIV/AIDS is hampered by various barriers. Particularly, key populations (KP) face unique challenges in accessing antiretroviral therapy (ART), attributed to health systems, patient-related, and community-related factors. This study aims to explore these barriers among KP in Nigeria, enhancing understanding to improve ART access and outcomes, thereby contributing to global efforts to end the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
