Abstract
⺠Conventional public health evaluations are not equipped to examine how macro-level interventions are shaped by local power dynamics. âºÂ Longitudinal ethnographic research and case studies reveal unintended consequences of macro-level interventions. ⺠Analysis of the age of consent law highlights how planners and communities hold conflicting views about gendered HIV risk. ⺠The article demonstrates how ethnography can help design and evaluate theoretically-grounded macro-level interventions.
