L’objectif

The global spread of harm reduction services continues to stall – a continuation of a trend first observed in 2012. Women are estimated to account for at least one third of people who use drugs globally yet are consistently reported to have less access to harm reduction services and are at higher risk of HIV and hepatitis C transmission.

Constatations/points à retenir

This report provides a summary of regional findings as well as common global trends, to document service offerings and gaps for women+ who use drugs. Also included is a ‘living’ listing by region of relevant services with a brief description and links for more detail where available. 

There is also a webinar recording on this report.
