Community Action on Harm Reduction Annual Report 2014

The International HIV/AIDS Alliance (the Alliance) project, Community Action on Harm Reduction (CAHR), funded by the Dutch government (as project number 23389), started on 1 January, 2011. The project involves work in five countries – China, India, Indonesia, Kenya and Malaysia – and engages a number of international technical partners.

The project is a unique horizontal partnership that brings together experiences from the communities, country level civil and governmental players, international technical experts. In the course of four years, the programme significantly reduced the risks of HIV transmission among people who inject drugs (PWID) communities and their close environment in the five countries; it built capacities of civil society and governmental stakeholders to deliver effective harm reduction interventions; it worked towards reducing policy barriers to implementation and funding of harm reduction interventions.
