Banking on health: savings accounts may cut HIV risk in kenyan men

NCT ID NCT05385484

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether offering lottery-based rewards for saving money can help Kenyan men reduce behaviors that raise their risk for HIV and other STIs. About 1,500 men aged 18-39 who drink alcohol and have paid for sex in the past will be split into two groups. One group gets access to a special savings account with chances to win prizes for saving, while the other group does not. Researchers will track new HIV and STI cases over two years to see if the savings program makes a difference.
