HIV and Sex Work Collection: Innovative Responses to Sex Work and HIV in Asia and the Pacific

Reviews and Snapshots - Released in 2012

The HIV and Sex Work Collection provides eleven detailed case studies on HIV and sex work programmes and advocacy from seven countries in the Asia Pacific region: Bangladesh, China, Fiji, India, Myanmar, Nepal and Thailand. It also provides an analysis of the key lessons learned for delivering and scaling up evidence and rights-based responses.
 
The HIV and Sex Work Collection is designed for multiple audiences. It is a valuable tool for: programming managers, implementers and service providers, including government, NGOs and sex worker organizations, in the design and delivery of programmes; policy makers and development partners in planning and allocating resources for strengthening and scaling up effective interventions; and advocacy for a comprehensive response that focuses on evidence and rights-based interventions to address HIV in the context of sex work.
