  1. RikuLehtovuori, United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) • David Wilson, The World Bank • Eliot Ross Albers, International Network of People Who Use Drugs (INPUD) • WaimarTun, Population Council Assessing Quality of Population Size Estimates of People Who Inject Drugs Scientific Development Workshop AIDS 2014, Melbourne, 22 July 2014

  2. Workshop Objective To strengthen participants’ capacity to assess the quality of population size estimates of people who inject drugs (PWID) and take action for improving them

  3. QUALITY OF POPULATION SIZE ESTIMATES OF PEOPLE WHO INJECT DRUGS:GLOBAL OVERVIEW RIKU LEHTOVUORI HIV/AIDS SECTION UNODC

  4. GLOBAL PREVALENCE OF PEOPLE WHO INJECT DRUGS12.7 MILLION (0.27%) World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank

  5. GLOBAL PREVALENCE OF HIV AMONG PEOPLE WHO INJECT DRUGS: 1.7 MILLION (13.1%) World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank

  6. Assessing global data set on PWID and HIV • By methodology of the estimates; • By year of the estimates

  7. Pop Size of People Who Inject Drugs • Global classification of country estimates • * Data graded D2 excluded from the UN dataset World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank (based on Mathers et al, 2008)

  8. Size estimates of people who inject drugs; By Methodology Grade (n=89 countries) World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank

  9. Size estimates of people who inject drugs; By Methodology Grade (n=89 countries) World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank

  10. Size estimates of people who inject drugs; By Year (n=89 countries) World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank

  11. Size estimates of people who inject drugs; By Year + Method (n=89 countries) World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank

  12. HIV among People Who Inject Drugs • Global classification of country estimates • * Data graded D2 excluded from the joint UN dataset World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank (based on Mathers et. al, 2008)

  13. Estimates of HIV among PWID; By Methodology Grade (n=111 countries) World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank

  14. Estimates of HIV among PWID; • By Methodology Grade (n=111 countries) World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank

  15. Estimates of HIV among PWID; • By Year (n=111 countries) World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank

  16. Estimates of HIV among PWID; By Year + Method (n=111 countries) World Drug Report 2014/ UNODC, WHO, UNAIDS, World Bank

  17. Still, many countries • Currently have PWID estimates, which are critically outdated and/or • Currently have PWID estimates which are methodologically very weak or • Do not have PWID and/or PWID/HIV estimates at all
