Alliance denounces absence of community at WHA event on HIV prevention

Alliance denounces absence of community at WHA event on HIV prevention

www.aidsalliance.org - "Today, at the World Health Assembly, a high-level ministerial event reviewed the global progress being made on HIV prevention. UNAIDS also released a progress report tracking ‘Implementation of the HIV Prevention 2020 Road Map’, following the agreement by fast track countries to revisit prevention targets in October 2017.

(...) The Alliance is concerned that community voices were excluded from this event, which is symptomatic of the weak inclusion of civil society that we are hearing from our partners across the fast track countries. The Alliance has recently convened over 60 prevention champions from civil society and community groups to share and build knowledge and capacity to engage with the prevention Road Map in their countries."
