FSW intervention spending and coverage have substantially increased in India over the time period 2002 2008, with annual spending reaching about 800 million Indian rupees (about US$13 million) funding interventions reaching about 50% of India's estimated 1.3 million FSWs.
Reporting 'net costs' is important because cost offsets have a major influence on cost-effectiveness, as well as the ongoing budget implications of funding interventions over the longer term.
However, continued collaboration among partners is likely and regardless of level of funding, interventions conducted may be scaled to meet local needs based on available resources (e.g., fewer DUI checkpoints, or low-manpower checkpoints, and increased saturation patrols).
Given that the concept of evidence-based practice and policy is growing in significance, the dissemination of this study (methods and results) will help to fill a gap in knowledge in three areas: the role of a public research funding agency in facilitating KT, the outcomes and impacts KT funding interventions, and how KT can best be evaluated.
