Cluster randomized stepped-wedge trial of a multi-level HIV prevention intervention to decrease amphetamine-type stimulants and sexual risk in Cambodian female entertainment and sex workers
The authors examined the impact of combined interventions in Cambodian female entertainment and sex workers. The research indicates that the sequentially delivered interventions of a conditional cash transfer, a cognitive-behavioral education session and a small loan help Cambodian female sex workers reduce their risk of HIV infection, stop using drugs and improve their economic status. Feasibility studies are needed to inform the scale-up and improve durability of this comprehensive approach.
