Drug and human trafficking have prevailed in the region for a long time. Drug production and trafficking have become more complex as drug markets in the region are evolving and now include an increasing number of drugs, ranging from both natural and synthetic opiates, Amphetamine-type stimulants and other synthetic drugs, pharmaceutical preparations and prescription drugs as well as a rising number of so-called 'new psychoactive substances'. The availability of and easy access to this variety of drugs entail serious health consequences, especially when injecting drug use occurs with the subsequent risk of infection with HIV and hepatitis, placing additional burden on health systems. Stigma and discrimination of those who require access to services remain a serious social problem.
