The Asian Harm Reduction Network: Supporting Responses to HIV and Injecting Drug Use in Asia

11 May 2001

This case study demonstrates that the Asian Harm Reduction Network has the potential to be again a decisive catalyst for action, to provide the skills-building capacities for largescale interventions, and to assist all those in the communities to do what needs to be done. Looking back at our common history, I am convinced that the Intercountry Team together with its cosponsors and partners, and the Asian Harm Reduction Network with its many competent members, can contribute significantly. In cooperation we can reduce the incidence of HIV infection and other drug-related harm among drug users in Asia and provide care and support to those who need it.
