2015 Size Estimation of Key Affected Populations in the Philippines

This 2015, the Epidemiology Bureau of the Department of Health (DOH-EB), together with various partners conducted several activities with the goal of updating the size estimates of key affected populations (KAP) in the Philippines, specifically among males who have sex with males (MSM), female sex workers (FSW) and injecting drug users (IDU).

With these updated information, the DOH-EB aims to guide the national, regional, and local HIV program to set appropriate targets for the provision and monitoring of services specific for these key affected populations in different parts of the country.
