Abstract
⺠Social empowerment of marginalised groups is a key pillar of global HIV policy. ⺠The funding environment may promote or undermine community empowerment. ⺠We studied 2 HIV prevention projects for sex workers in India. ⺠Sex workers are empowered at the local level, but disempowered by a managerial funding system. ⺠A contradiction: funding agency policies promote community leadership, their practices inhibit it.
