UNAIDS, the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS, is a specialized agency of the United Nations dedicated to coordinating the global response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Established in 1996, UNAIDS works in partnership with governments, civil society organizations, international organizations, and other stakeholders to accelerate progress towards ending the AIDS epidemic by 2030, as part of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
UNAIDS provides strategic leadership and advocacy, mobilizes resources, coordinates efforts, and monitors progress towards achieving global targets for HIV prevention, treatment, care, and support. The organization works to promote universal access to HIV prevention, testing, treatment, and care services, while also addressing the social, economic, and human rights dimensions of the epidemic.
UNAIDS supports countries in developing and implementing national HIV/AIDS strategies, strengthening health systems, promoting evidence-based interventions, reducing stigma and discrimination, and ensuring the meaningful involvement of communities affected by HIV/AIDS in decision-making processes. Through its collaborative approach, UNAIDS aims to achieve the vision of zero new HIV infections, zero discrimination, and zero AIDS-related deaths.
