Global AIDS Week of Action

to

 

The Global AIDS Week of Action brings people from coutries across the globe to demand more resources and greater accountability in response to HIV and AIDS. Campaigners from across the world will stand together with other organisations and networks to collectively generate political pressure and demand action from our leaders.

There are common concerns which we can all unite around, one or more of which will be relevant in your country. These include access to treatment, end violence against women, evidence based prevention, end human rights violations, funding for AIDS, end donor conditionality and health for all. ____________________________________________________________

World YWCA

AIDS is the largest global emergency to face women and girls in our lifetime. In Sub-Saharan Africa, the region most devastated by HIV and AIDS, three out of four people under the age of 25 years living with HIV are young women, and 59% of infected adults are women. Globally, women make up almost half of the 39.5 million people living with HIV – this figure is rising.

Since 1999, the World YWCA has been aggressively tackling this deadly disease, recognising the potential to affect change as one of the largest organisations for women and girls worldwide. At the heart of the YWCA’s global strategy is to mobilise the leadership of women in local villages and communities in the fight against HIV and AIDS. With a membership and outreach of millions of women and girls, this is where the YWCA is able to make the greatest impact in responding to the needs of people infected and affected, and in halting infection rates.

UN AIDS

2007 COUNTRY PROGRESS

In adopting the 2001 Declaration of Commitment on HIV/AIDS, Member States committed themselves to regularly report on their progress in responding to HIV to the General Assembly. The UN Secretary-General entrusted the UNAIDS Secretariat with the responsibility for developing the reporting process, accepting reports from member States on his behalf, and preparing a report for the General Assembly. Member States are required to submit country progress reports to the UNAIDS Secretariat every two years.

In 2008, countries are reporting on 25 core indicators which are described in detail in the 2007 Guidelines on Construction of Core Indicators . The 2008 reports mark an important time point in assessing progress towards the Universal Access to HIV prevention, treatment, care and support, and the targets set in the Declaration of Commitment.

On this site you find the currently available 2008 progress reports submitted by countries. Sharing of the country reports enables open discussion and assessment of progress between the governments, civil society representatives, and other key stakeholders engaged in the national response.
