Replication data for: Central Asia (2008): The Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices of IDUs Related to the Initiation of Others into Injecting Drug Use and Overdose in Khujand, Tashkent, and Bishkek.

PSI/Central Asia is implementing a 5-year USAID-funded Drug Demand Reduction Program (DDRP) among injecting drug users, opiate drug-using sex workers, sex workers and at-risk youth in select sites in Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. As part of the Break the Cycle (BTC) component of DDRP, PSI works with injecting drug users to reduce their involvement in the initiation of young people to injecting drug use and to prevent their own overdose death and that of their peers. This program funds BTC interventions in Khujand, Tajikistan; Osh, Kyrgyzstan; and Tashkent, Uzbekistan. The current study serves as the follow up to measure the impact of these activities.
