Description:
 Previous studies carried out by Family Health International (FHI) on the main highway of the terai in Nepal have shown that majority of the clients of the sex workers are transport workers, migrant workers, policemen/army personnel and businessmen. Most of these people are mobile and frequently come in contact with the sex workers, and they could carry the HIV virus to their unsuspecting families. Many studies have identified sexual transmission as the predominant route of HIV transmission in Nepal. In January 2009, FHI commissioned the fourth round of the IBBS among the female sex workers in the same 22 terai highway districts. The primary objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of HIV and sexually transmitted infections among female sex workers in the 22 terai highway districts and to assess their HIV/STI-related knowledge and risk behaviors. The eligibility criterion for recruiting the female sex workers in the study was "women reporting having been paid in cash or kind for sex within the last six months”.
