| Résumé : | Without implementation of full HIV/AIDS prevention interventions by 2005, projections suggest that an additional 20 million HIV infections will occur in the two regions by 2010, together with severe associated social and economic problems. The goal of the biregional harm reduction strategy is to reduce HIV incidence resulting from the sharing of needles and syringes in drug use. The strategy proposed is cost-effective and evidence-based with the full endorsement and support of the UN system. The guiding principles were devised on the basis of effective collaboration between countries in the regions to integrate within the health system the harm reduction approach to HIV/AIDS among people who inject drugs. The strategy proposes steps for the implementation of harm reduction activities, ranging from Rapid Assessment Response (RAR) activity and the development of harm reduction policies and strategic plans, to the preparation of health services and communities for phased implementation of harm reduction programmes. |
