This report was prepared for the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Bangkok Regional Hub and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Taskforce on AIDS as part of the ASEAN Cities Getting to Zero Initiative, to produce evidence on the legal environments affecting HIV responses among key populations in ASEAN states and Timor-Leste.

The report provides a regional overview and summary of laws, police practices, and related policies. The report includes examples of protective laws and good practices from each country that can inform efforts to improve the legal environment for HIV responses. In addition, ten individual country summaries were prepared as part of this study, which were shared as internal working documents with ASEAN Task Force on AIDS focal points and members of the United Nations Country Teams working on HIV and AIDS in the ten ASEAN countries.
