China (2005): MAP Study Evaluating Coverage and Quality of Coverage of Condoms in Hotzones in Guangxi Province. First Round.

This report is based on data collected by Professor Li Bowen from Yunnan Nationalities University. The aim is to obtain managerial-level ideas relating to the coverage and quality of PSI's product delivery systems to ensure that socially marketed products are accessible to groups most in need. In the past, PSI/China conducted distribution surveys (DS) and measured the proportion of outlets where PSI products were available among all potential outlets. This year, with the help of an external consultant, PSI/China used a new methodology called Project MAP to measure the extent to which Huxianghao- (HXH) endorsed condoms are available in areas where target groups including female sex workers (FSWs) and Injected Drug Users (IDUs) are concentrated, as well as the quality of such product coverage.
