UNODC is present in South Asia since 1988, with a Regional Office based in New Delhi, India. The Office covers the countries of Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal and Sri Lanka. UNODC's current work in South Asia with governments and the civil society focuses on the following thematic areas: 1. Drug use prevention, treatment and care 2. Prevention of HIV and AIDS among drug users and in prison settings 3. Drug law enforcement and precursor control 4. Prevention of human trafficking 5. Prevention of smuggling of migrants 6. Anti-corruption While this brochure describes the work that UNODC is currently undertaking in South Asia at the national and regional level, UNODC is also increasingly working towards addressing emerging crimes and threats, such as the production and trafficking of new drugs, wildlife crime, financial and cybercrimes, maritime piracy as well as terrorism. All of these present a serious threat to the security and livelihoods of a region, which is home to almost one-fifth of the world’s population.
