l.Ri.D.E.: Interventi di Riduzione del Danno Efficaci secondo le Linee Guida Internazionali 2013. Una ricerca intervento nelle carceri italiane
Coordinator: University of Turin
Partners: ANLAIDS; ARCIGAY; CNCA; LILA; Gruppo Abele; Circolo Mario Mieli; MIT
The project: the aim of this project is to experiment several harm reduction strategies regarding the transmission of HIV and of other Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) within the prison population. The strategies and actions will be elaborated following the 2013 international guidelines “HIV prevention, treatment and care in prisons and other closed settings: a comprehensive package of interventions”. In Italy these guidelines are still not a reality, therefore, as we recognize the normative and praxis difficulties that could be encountered in their application, we want to identify possible and feasible actions in order to favor their implementation.
