BORDERNETwork conducted in 8 EU countries and Ukraine literature review on background information, existing HIV/STI services and barriers to early access for key vulnerable groups (SW, IDUs). Focus-groups with both clients and providers were conducted in order to identify and prioritize possible structural and client-driven barriers to access. As a result special HIV/STI diagnostic services are piloted in selected vulnerable groups between June 2011 and June 2012.
