Workplace programmes to target clients of sex workers: the 9th International Congress on AIDS in Asia and the Pacific (ICAAP)

Men who buy sex from women are the largest population group at risk of contracting HIV, outnumbering injecting drug users and men who have sex with men in Asia and the Pacific region. To highlight the need for increased coverage of interventions for clients of sex workers, the ILO took the opportunity of the 9th International Congress on AIDS in Asia and the Pacific (ICAAP) to organize a satellite session titled “Reaching Clients of Sex Workers through Workplace Interventions,” on 12 August, 2009.
