Harm reduction in the context of chemsex: training manual shabnam.abdullayeva_2293 Wed, 09/13/2023 - 09:09

Sexualised drug use, i.e. the use of any legal or illegal psychoactive substance before or during sex, is not new. In fact, substances have been used to enhance pleasure and overcome inhibitions in many cultures through the ages. Research from the last few decades has shown that sexualised drug use is more frequent among the LGBTQI+ community than other populations. This can partly be traced back to minority stress, which creates a stronger need to connect, to enhance a sense of identity, to deal with painful emotions and
to form a sense of community.

The manual "Harm reduction in the context of chemsex" is divided in two parts. The first part presents the definition of chemsex, problematic chemsex involvement, harm reduction in the context of chemsex engagement and some core guidelines regarding best practices when delivering services on chemsex. The second part of the manual outlines a training workshop on chemsex and harm reduction.

The aim of this manual is to outline a training course that is as interactive as possible, in order to allow trainees to use their analytical, critical and creative skills.

Key Populations' Values and Preferences for HIV, Hepatitis and STI services: A Qualitative Study shabnam.abdullayeva_2293 Mon, 08/30/2021 - 16:26

In 2021 INPUD collaborated with the World Health Organization (WHO) Department for Global HIV, Hepatitis and STI Programmes on a global qualitative study examining the values and preferences of key populations, including people who inject drugs, for HIV, Hepatitis and STIs services. The findings of this study will inform the update of the WHO 2016 Consolidated Guidelines for HIV prevention, diagnosis, treatment and care for key populations, which are used to inform countries on the design and implementation of health packages for key populations (people who inject drugs, gay and bisexual men and other men who have sex with men, female, male and trans sex workers and trans people).

2020 Global AIDS Update ⁠— Seizing the moment ⁠— Tackling entrenched inequalities to end epidemics admin Mon, 08/03/2020 - 14:55

UNAIDS report on the global AIDS epidemic shows that 2020 targets will not be met because of deeply unequal success; COVID-19 risks blowing HIV progress way off course. Missed targets have resulted in 3.5 million more HIV infections and 820 000 more AIDS-related deaths since 2015 than if the world was on track to meet the 2020 targets. In addition, the response could be set back further, by 10 years or more, if the COVID-19 pandemic results in severe disruptions to HIV services.

COVID-19 crisis impact on access to health services for sex workers in Europe and Central Asia

COVID-19 crisis impact on access to health services for sex workers in Europe and Central Asia admin Fri, 06/19/2020 - 01:03

This assessment on the impact of COVID-19 on sex workers’ access to health services in Europe and Central Asia was developed by the International Committee on the Rights of Sex Workers in Europe (ICRSE) and the Sex Workers’ Rights Advocacy Network (SWAN) through consultations with their memberhips.

This resource was developed as part of a monitoring exercise to document the impact of COVID-19 pandemic and related measures on sex workers’ access to health services. Whilst the resource does not intend to be exhaustive and final, it gives a detailed overview of the issues faced by sex workers in accessing health services, and brings focus on some specific needs and demands of sex workers in Europe and Central Asia. In particular, it highlights the crucial work done by community-led organisations to fill the gaps in health services, protect sex workers and their families from risks of COVID-19, HIV and STIs and support their safety and security.
