Size estimation among people who use drugs in the Republic of Moldova was conducted under the program " Strengthening tuberculosis and reducing AIDS mortality in the Republic of Moldova" for the years 2021 - 2023, financed by the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, and implemented by Dermatology and Communicable Diseases Hospital in collaboration with the Centre for Health Policies and Studies. The overall objective of this study was to provide insights into the extent of illicit drug use among people who use illicit non-injection drugs, not including injection drug use, in Republic of Moldova. The results of the study will enable the design of evidence-based HIV prevention activities for people who use non-injecting drugs.
