This study assesses the effectiveness of the MARTAS - Modified effective “Anti-Retroviral Treatment and Access to Services” (ARTAS) intervention. This is a case management - based individual-level, multi-session intervention for people who are recently diagnosed with HIV in narcology, TB, and STIs clinics in order to help them link to and be retained in HIV care.

Our study aims to examine alcohol consumption and the prevalence of alcohol use disorders, as well as comorbidities including smoking, substance use, and mental health of people living with HIV and TB co-infection in Ukraine. This study will also provide data on participants’ willingness to engage in treatment for these comorbidities and explore participants’ readiness for reduction of alcohol intake, addiction treatment and depression treatment.

The study will look at the feasibility and impact of expanding the availability and accessibility of community management of opioid overdose (including training and take-home naloxone) in participating countries/sites.
The study will produce evidence on the implementation barriers and facilitators for community management of opioid overdose, including trainings, outreach activities and settings that are better placed to reach many people at risk to prevent opioid overdose. The initiative's targets include saving lives by making naloxone and training on overdose management available to all people likely to witness an overdose, including peers and family members. The initiative sets a global implementation target of 90-90-90 as a joint point of reference:
1) 90 per cent of the relevant target population should be trained in overdose risk and emergency management;
2) 90 per cent of those trained should carry take-home naloxone;
3) 90 per cent of those who have been given a naloxone supply should use naloxone at overdoses they witness.
