Good news! By procuring lifesaving HIV treatments from Kenya, the The Global Fund is taking the first steps towards a fairer, more equitable HIV response. This is proof that Africa is not just the epicentre of the AIDS pandemic. We are a continent of boundless talent, scientific

No nation should have to choose between investing in healthcare & education or repaying its external debt. For countries to reduce dependency on external donors and reach the #GlobalGoals, debt relief & fair financing structures are essential. #FFD4 👇🏾 unaids.org/en/resources/p…

In South Africa 🇿🇦, sudden funding cuts have forced the closure of mental health services for people living with HIV - services that help them stay on treatment, overcome self-stigma, and find the resilience to carry on. Hear from Dr. Gloria Maimela about these challenges:

FOWODE at 30 FOWODE pioneered Gender Responsive Budgeting (GRB) in Uganda in 1998, playing a key role in its full adoption by the government through the Public Finance Management Act, which now requires sectors to certify gender and equity integration in their budgets.

Cambodia is on course to achieve the UNAIDS Global 95-95-95 HIV testing and treatment targets by 2025. As we prepare for #GlobalAIDSStrategy2031, great to see how 🇰🇭 reaches almost all diagnosed people and leverages the power of #UequalsU to further reduce new infections.

A nation's #HIVresponse can only be sustainable through HIV prevention. Since 2010, Cambodia has reduced new infections at a faster rate than the global average and many of its #AsiaPacific neighbours.

Political will is essential to #endAIDS. #Cambodia's example shows the importance of high-level commitment and a comprehensive national strategy. 🇰🇭 is making such progress in its HIV response! 👏🏾

#Cambodia's 🇰🇭 impressive HIV response also proves that community leadership is just as key to ending AIDS as political will. Community-led monitoring, a focus on #UequalsU, and PrEP scale-up through friendly, accessible HIV services - all help ensure an effective response.
