Accent : Journée Mondiale de Lutte Contre le SIDA 2019
01/12/2019World AIDS Day 2019 message from UNAIDS Executive Director Winnie ByanyimaUNAIDS - "1 December 2019: I believe in communities. Communities make change happen. Communities are the best hope for ending AIDS because communities have fought against HIV right from the beginning! As the epidemic raged through our countries, cities, villages, women held communities together and bore the higher burden of care for their families. |
01/12/2019World AIDS Day 2019 Virtual Issue - Communities make the differenceInternational AIDS Society - "Since the beginning of the epidemic, the HIV response has been largely driven by communities, calling for access to life-saving treatments, advocating for the rights of people living with HIV and providing voluntary counselling and testing, HIV prevention, treatment, care, and support. Without community involvement, fewer HIV services would be available particularly for key populations, including men who have sex with men, people who inject drugs, sex workers and transgender people. |
27/11/2019Power to the peopleUNAIDS - "A new report by UNAIDS, Power to the people, released ahead of World AIDS Day, shows that where people and communities living with and affected by HIV are engaged in decision-making and HIV service delivery, new infections decline and more people living with HIV gain access to treatment. When people have the power to choose, to know, to thrive, to demand and to work together, lives are saved, injustices are prevented and dignity is restored. |
