Estimating the size of key affected populations (KAP) provides important data for planning and implementing an effective response to the HIV epidemic. In the Philippines, these KAP include males who have sex with males (MSM), female sex workers (FSW), and injecting drug users (IDU). Given the diffic...ulty in reaching these populations, as well as their high mobility, the process consequently entailed a specific methodology to directly estimate the size of KAP.
The national estimate of MSM was 531,500 or 2.2% (1.8%-3.2%) of males aged 15-49. Within this MSM estimate, figures for transgender women (TGW) and male transactional sex workers (MSW) were determined. The national estimate for TGW was 122,800 or about 0.50% (0.40%-0.75%) of males aged 15-49, and 23% of the MSM population. Meanwhile, MSW comprised 0.35% (0.29%-0.53%) of the male population aged 15-49 and 16% of the MSM population, giving a best estimate of 86,600.
The estimate of combined RFSW and FFSW was 66,100 or 0.28% (0.19%-0.40%) of females aged 15-49. Meanwhile, there are approximately 10,000 to 21,700 IDU or 0.04%-0.09% of males aged 15-49.

Près de deux ans après la signature de l’Accord Politique pour la Paix et la Réconciliation (APPR), la population centrafricaine est toujours l’otage d’un environnement sécuritaire instable et imprévisible. La poursuite des conflits dans plusieurs zones du pays, les faiblesses structurell...es conjuguées aux effets socio-économiques de la pandémie de COVID-19 et aux effets dévastateurs des catastrophes naturelles ont plongé 2,8 millions de personnes dans une grande vulnérabilité. Sur ce total, 1,9 million connaissent des besoins humanitaires sévères, un chiffre inégalé depuis 5 ans qui traduit une détérioration du bien-être physique et mental et des conditions de vie des populations dans l’ensemble du pays.
