| Abstract: | Background Different models exist to provide HIV/STI services for most-at-risk populations (MARP). Along the Tete traffic corridor in
Mozambique, linking Malawi and Zimbabwe, a night clinic opening between 4 and 10 PM was established targeting female sex workers
(FSW) and long-distance truck drivers (LDD). The clinic offers free individual education and counselling, condoms, STI care,
HIV testing, contraceptive services and outreach peer education. To evaluate this clinic model, we assessed relevance, service
utilisation, efficiency and sustainability. |
