Social Exclusion Group and Key Population Group in Bangladesh and STIs/HIV: A Double Jeopardy

In this paper, the author describes social exclusion of concentrating on the path amongst exclusion and sexual health about two-risk groups (social exclusion of risk groups and key population risk group in Bangladesh), which are vulnerable to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Practice of the ‘social exclusion’ perception in the Bangladeshi articles (Khan et al., 2009), as well as other regions, is lately ranging widespread because of its importance to practice and policy (Mathieson et al., 2008; United Nations, 2007). “Social exclusion is an accumulation of confluent processes with successive ruptures arising from the heart of economy, politics and society (Estivill, 2003). It derives from exclusionary relationships based on power” (Beall & Piron, 2005). Both groups are at risk in contracting STIs and HIV due to their vulnerable activities and susceptibility toward the diseases. Empowering these two groups by validating their dimensions in analysing situations and proposing possible interventions would be the best option. Above all, both groups suffer from double jeopardy.
