Burrows, D. (1993). Establishing an international communications network for injecting drug user groups : abstract. In International Conference on AIDS. Berlin.
Abstract: An HIV “explosion” has occurred among injecting drug users (IDUs) in many countries in the developed and developing world. The paper describes the establishment of the International Drug Users Network (IDUN) at a meeting of representatives of IDU groups in Melbourne, Australia in March 1992. Representatives from IDU groups in Australia, New Zealand, Germany, the Netherlands, Nepal and the USA attended the meeting, which resulted in a communications network being set up for exchange of information and ideas on HIV prevention among IDUs, increasing recognition of IDUs’ human rights, activities and policies of IDU groups, and effects of drug and HIV policies on injecting drug users. The paper will detail the first year of IDUN’s operations, suggest new directions for the network and provide recommendations for authorities trying to prevent HIV among IDUs.

Burrows, D. (1993). Establishing and maintaining credibility as an injecting drug users group : street cred versus professionalism : abstract. In International Conference on AIDS. Berlin.
Abstract: New South Wales contains a large proportion of Australia’s estimated 200,000 to 300,000 injecting drug users (IDUs). This paper describes the development of NUAA (New South Wales Users and AIDS Association), an injecting drug users group, and the roles played by IDUs in the establishment and maintenance of NUAA’s services (Education Services, Community Services, Information/Tribes, and Needle Exchange/Referral) and NUAA Working Groups (Research, Newsletter Production, and HIV Support Group). The paper details the many ways in which IDUs (from both inside and outside the organisation) have become involved in NUAA, and how that involvement has changed as the organisation has grown. It also addresses the issues of professional behaviour by NUAA staff and the need for the organisation to be seen as credible at a governmental and policy making level to effectively represent the interests of IDUs while at the same time ensuring that it never becomes aloof from its constituency. The paper concludes with a set of recommendations for anyone interested in setting up an injecting drug users group for HIV prevention, education and advocacy.
