Application: Universal Intervention: effective HIV / AIDS control and education on unreachable groups
Applicant: Zi Teng
Objectives: The aims of this programme are:-
  1. to do rapid tests, and medical checkups/blood test with 100 clients (e.g. aged clients, clients who buy sex in China more often than Hong Kong) and 200 unreachable sex workers (such as sex workers from saunas, foot massage centres, underground brothels, cross border sex workers, and young sex workers on internet and in escort companies);
  2. to pull and train up 8-15 sex workers and 10-15 clients to be the peer educators;
  3. to change both sex workers’ and clients attitudes towards condom use and unprotected oral sex (i.e. understand that STDs/HIV can be transmitted in oral sex);
  4. to promote safe sex and STDs/HIV prevention effectively to sex workers and clients with the use of different means (e.g. posters, hotline, leaflets, campaigns).
